After seeing that even with the brightness turned down all the way, from the keyboard, the login screen was still visible in a dark room, I began to wonder if you could still get screen burn-in if you left it on for long periods of time. The next here at school has a burn in of the login window that is fairly noticible. What I was thinking was that either the screen dimmer could do something other than just dim the screen, ie. open a black window or a window with a moving pattern, or maybe after long periods of idle time the monitor could be turned completely off. Just ideas, maybe I'm just worrying over nothing. Robert
