Hi, well,
I may be ignorant, but I have to ask this. Does the new Imac 2009 still has the auto-brightness function?
I cant find it.. Depressing if not, and even more depressing that no one asked about this.

I appreciate your feedback

Regards,
M.

No iMac ever had this function.

The ambient light sensor in the white iMacs was ONLY for dimming the sleep light in dark bedrooms, for example.

It was NOT used for the screen.
