I think I just might be a really picky bastard. I have a friend who installed the after-burner, and the super-white LED lights give it a funny blueish look. I prefer a nice incandescant lamp, it doesn't wash things out too much. I also have owned lots of backlit portables(Turbo-Express, Game Gear, Nomad), so I'm biased there, too. No matter what, the afterburner just is no replacement for a backlight(come on Nintendo! get with the program!).
PS-- my friend installed the afterburner himself. I don't recommend this... He forgot to install the brightness control, and he's too timid to go back in there to do it over again. I, personally, don't blame him.
