Mac OS Invert Screen Battery Life Tip

Mac OS Screen Colors Inverted

I was at Colin Moock’s AS3 Tour when I glanced at the guy’s screen next to me. All the colors on the screen were dark. At first I thought he had a custom interface on the app that he had darkened. But then I noticed that when he switched apps it was still all dark and that photos were also inverted. I asked him what was up. Without a word, he motioned to his keyboard ctrl + option + ⌘ + 8. I pressed those keys and my world changed. I now got more battery life on my MacBook Pro when I needed it at the cost of color accuracy. No problem for surfing or blogging. Plus it’s a neat trick even most power Mac users don’t know.
