I own a 755C and a PowerBook 540C. While the PB screen is smaller (9.5 vs.
10.4), it *is* considerably brighter. I owned the 755C before the 540C, and
I thought the screen was pretty bright, until I started working with the
540C. The brightness is definitely noticable. Clarity wise, both are
640x480, but the PB540 screen is 640x480x256 *or* 640x400*65,535. Whereas
on the 755CE above, um, we know which one supports higher resolution to
sport those same amount of colors. :)
