About a week ago half of my screen, out of the blue, just went slightly dimmer than the top half. No idea how this happened. THe touch button continues to flash. The machine operates fine, and no shutting down, sleeping, etc has fixed it.

any idea wuts wrong? Is my graphics card fried or is the LCD screen dying?

That means one of the backlights failed. Sounds like a nifty apple repair :'(
