One of the joys of using a laptop is portability. But as anyone who has tried to use a laptop outside in the sunlight knows, the screen is hard to read.
Which brings up this keyboard shortcut: CTRL-OPTION-APPLE-8, which switches to "inverse" mode. Basically, it inverts all the colors on the screen. Try it -- I'll wait. Notice this this is "8", not "F8".
See? Scary, huh? Great for using your laptop outside, though.

what is this mysterious "alt" you speak of?
I hope it doesn't translate to ctrl-option-apple-8, because if so, it doesn't appear to work on my MacBook running Leopard.
(btw there's an app called Nocturne which does more or less the same thing.)
Thank you so much for sharing this. Now I can make my baby sleep while surfing on blogs :)
