My Acer Aspire's display is very very dim and dull today since I powered it on, and in fact at one point almost totally blacked out. Thankfully I was able to SSH to it and rsync my $HOME onto another machine.
Have called a local notebook repair place, and am waiting for them to get back to me with details, and hopefully an estimate on the cost.
Really hope it's an easy and cheap fix, can't really afford to replace it (it's out of warranty).
