Yeah, sorry, I noticed that right after I sent it.  What may be happening
is that people are comparing the screens under different lighting. 
Sometimes the anti-glare makes the TP look brighter, sometimes they're
the same or the Powerbook is brighter (they *are* advertised as backlit).

Of course the other unthinkable possibility is that TFTs vary so much
in quality that you can't be sure if you'll get a bright or dim one.
