Wow, google is great. For completeness, here is what I have at the
*end* of my colorscheme file:

if exists('g:lapscreen') "Compensate for yucky native laptop screen
hi Normal guibg=#000050
hi CursorLine guibg=#004000
hi CursorColumn guibg=#004000 guifg=gray80
endif

If you're on a yucky laptop screen, type :let lapscreen='' followed by
":colorscheme myColorScheme" without the quotes. If you subsequently
switch to a nice external monitor, type ":unlet lapscreen" without the
quotes, followed by ":colorscheme myColorScheme" without the quotes.
Note that for each highlight command in the if-block, you should have
a default corresponding command above the if-block for the case that
g:lapscreen is unset.
