Ooops! It was never dim to begin with! Yeah, this came out, oh, say about 8 days ago, I believe. ;-) You might try using the Colorsync calibration in the Displays preference pane->Color->Calibrate. It won't make the backlight any brighter, but it might make the screen look a little better, depending on your preferences. There should also be a few pre-set color calibrations already in there that you can compare to.
