Usually takes quite a long time to burn in an image. Mostly happens in
industrial applications like ATMs where the same login screen is shown
for days on end. Not sure this happens anymore with LCD.

Ok, here's my 2 cents worth for what its worth.
Firstly, I really don't know why screen savers are such an issue here
as most of us cannot see them in any case, the best screen saver in
existence is that which turns the monitor off.
Now screen burning? Well yes, its been talked about but yet (to my
knowledge and according to all the technical articles I've read), no
one has ever managed to burn an image into a screen by leaving it
displayed so that puts that myth to rest. So if you want a good Screen
saver, just set your display to go to sleep after 1 minute or so,
saves your memory, saves processing power etc.

OK, I've been fiddling around with the energy saver and screen saver
settings. I know that you can ruin some monitors if you leave them on
without a screen saver. However, I want to stop the monitor from
shutting off when I am watching something like a DVD or an MLB
ballgame. How would you guys adjust the monitor settings if you owned
an imac?
