got a 4 yr old thinkpad, and i use it for hrs at a time, been pleased with it so far. However, i was just mucking about with it and it apppears i dont even know how to adjust the brightness on the damn thing!. in four years, i have pressed the thinkpad button once, which was just now. whats the sodding thing actually meant to do?!:rotfl:

    Fn + Home = brighter
    Fn + End = less brighter
