Richie, the way to keep your screen reader for your wife and to be
able to read long documents is to set it to almost never come on.

Richie,
I just turn off the monitor or turn down the brightbness on my
laptop. The only other thing a screen saver does is give you a
convienent way of securing your machine if you need that capability.

Hello,
I've thought about turning my screen saver off, too, but I've been
concerned that this would hurt the screen (e.g., by burning it
out). I understand this used to be a problem with old cathode ray
tubes, but I don't know if it's also a problem for LCD displays. As
it's never been a high priority issue, I've never inquired into it,
but since you're bringing it up, I thought you might clarify
whether or not turning screen savers off might also hurt LCD displays.
Cordially,
Rafael Bejarano

Do any of you leave your screensavers on? I ask this because I
turned mine off, in order for me to read a rather lengthy
publication I receive electronically, and in the middle of the
reading, the Screensaver was activated, so I went into the System
Preferences and turned it off. I then went back to the
publication and it read just fine. My wife loves the screensaver,
but it means nothing to me, so I turned it off. I just wondered
if any of you use yours for anything? Richie Gardenhire,
