I can't believe Apple monitors are all that much different to

any standard LCD monitors, I've an Acer, an LG and a Sony and in
all of them brightness, contrast, etc. are all adjusted within the
monitor - nothing to do with any OS. Are you sure you can't set the
brightness in the monitor - seems very strange if you can't.
