    Just an aside, but for those who are saying that their T400 with LED screen is "eye-bleedingly bright" at its brightest setting... I dunno how they figure this.

    I can only really use it at it's top setting, and *maybe* one level down in a darker room.

    My eyesight is great, though I *do* tend to like rooms that are very well lit.

    I should get some people to come take a look and tell me if they think it's too bright for them.

    I would tend to agree. I like a bright screen, and tend to always have it max, unless in darkened room.

    I'm loving the max brightness too on my T400, but i tend to darken it in dimly lit rooms because it actually does hurt my eyes when its dim. However, I find it still useable even at half brightness in well lit rooms when i'm trying to conserve power.
