[CUBE] Adjusting brightness on Apple Studio Display CRT

[RedEclipseTurbo]

You can try to hunt down a gamma correction program that would allow 
you to brighten the output of your display. You can't get too 
aggressive or you will loose your contrast but at least for OS 9 there 
were several Gamma control panels floating around out there. As far as 
OS X is concerned I have no idea as I haven't seen anything along those 
lines. You might be able to crank up the brightness via an adjustment 
screw inside the monitor's case but unless you know how to discharge a 
CRT I would leave it to an Apple service provider. There is the 
potential for some serious voltage to be hanging around inside that CRT 
that could send you across the room!

The cube I recently purchased came with an Apple Studio Display (CRT). 
Unfortunately, the display is not as bright as I need it to be. There 
is no external adjustment on the display itself, and System Preferences 
(10.2.4) shows only a "Contrast" setting, not brightness. I have 
recalibrated and run Color Sync, but cannot seem to get a brighter 
setting. When I calibrate the display it flashes through several blank 
screens and I can see that the display has the ability to be brighter, 
so it's probably not a "weak tube" hardware problem. Anyone have any 
ideas about this? Thanks in advance.
