I believe it was in fact the Photoshop installer that created both of those startup shortcuts and yes, one of them can be deleted. I think it may have been that if you installed PS6 and then later the 6.01 update, the latter created the differently named shortcut, but I forget which. If you view the properties of each shortcut, they should both be pointing to the same file as c: Program Files Common Files Adobe Calibration Adobe Gamma.cpl (I think PS6 used this same location as PS7). Yes, Adobe Gamma does load each time you boot into Windows but I don't believe redundant processes are created as is often the case with other executables.

The purpose of Adobe Gamma is to load your calibrated monitor profile but no, this is of no value for an LCD display. Depending upon your display, most cannot be calibrated very accurately due to brightness/contrast control limitations, not to mention the shift in colors that may occur for different tilt angles of your LCD. Some of the higher-end LCD panels can be calibrated from what I understand, but I seem to remember reading that Adobe Gamma still isn't designed for use with LCDs and that another 3rd party calibrator might be needed in lieu of Adobe Gamma. As you thought, you can control the loading of Adobe Gamma by simply dragging the shortcut into/out of your startup folder as needed.
