P Philflow macrumors 65816 May 7, 2008 1,276 3 Jul 25, 2009 #3 Notebookcheck has measured it: 258 cd/m. http://www.notebookcheck.com/Test-MacBook-Pro-17-Unibody-Non-Glare.16733.0.html With the non glare panel, that would be enough for outside. The Lenovo panel will be brighter, but it will not reach 680 cd/m. Manufacturers have a tendency of exaggerating specs.
