Windows 8 - Yea or Nay?
Carl-E:
Doesn't the monitor have brightness control?
And, with due respects to Gallagher, it my not work on the internet... :-D
Omega Entity:
The more I hear about 8, the more I'm sure I'll never upgrade to it until they pull their heads out of their asses. I'm still running on XP, for cripes sake.
Is it just me, or has it felt like they're trying to alienate people who have known how to use the interface that they used for a decade, and now the people who learned how to use Vista and 7's interface, which each recent Windows release?

Yes. Have you ever tried to use it? Do you know how many button presses it takes to bring the brightness down from a level that's comfortable during the day, to what's comfortable during the night? For my monitor, it's about 40.
pwhodges:
Doesn't it repeat on holding? Mine does. Anyway, how often do you want to change it - a laptop is used in different circumstances, which makes it necessary (I presume Windows gets access to the function buttons that laptops have built in, but a separate desktop monitor doesn't give that access).
jwhouk:
My problem isn't the brightness, it's the color hue. I can't adequately adjust the color hue using the OSD controls on my monitor, and have to use the ones through the graphics card. It's doubly hard, of course, because of my deuteranopia.
