    hi, i was wondering if anybody is having an issue with the monitor brightness? at first it was brighter when plugged in and darker when used with battery, which i expected. now it seems to be always darker even when plugged in. [ :(] thanks.

    You can turn the brightness back up using the function keys. Many notebooks scale back the brightness when unplugged, sounds like yours didn't scale back up when plugged in.
