    If you have experience with it, can you do hours of work without straining your eyes:

    a) sunny day, direct sunlight on screen (beach?)
    b) sunny day, sun not shining on screen
    c) sunny day in some shade (patio?)

    Thx!

    So bright you can get a sun tan. :)

    I never run mine full brightness. I'm using the setting just below full brightness. But my machine is pretty new and I haven't used it much yet.

    I try to remember to do some sun tests tomorrow.

    Here's a pic of the Dell ATG D620. That's 500 nits while the T400 high nit is 680 nits.
