When they’re next to each other in a dark room I can easily tell the which has the yellow tint; if I recall correctly (and am not an idiot) I white balanced properly before taking these.

is there a clear colour difference or is it just white balance in the photographs?

Those are magnified portions of a block of white being displayed on each screen, so you can see the pixel structure and uniform brightness.

Wow, you’re right. Crazy. BTW, what are those coloured squares (between “Samsung LED-backlit monitor” and “Macbook CCFL-backlit display”, under the respective pictures)?
