Yes, I have heard that this is the case. But, I also heard it is the "show floor" brightness setting. This is also used on TV's. Since the stores are so brightly lit they have to turn the brighness up all the way to be able to view the image in the store.
I certainly do have my brightness down, about a notch lower than half. That actually is the maint thing I don't like about my iMac... it has the glossy screen. I am probably going to get a new monitor with a matte screen and make that the primary display.
(Either that or get some curtains for the computer room. To cut the glare during the day.)
