Your screen is probably as reliable as your computer. It is no more likely to go bad as any other component in your computer. In my opinion your disk drive is more likely to go bad as is your screen. However a screen saver would not hurt anything.

I'm concerned about my screen burning out, if left on for hours on end. I do shut it down completely at night, or if I am away. I do not leave it running continually. ----- Original Message ----- From: "LeDon" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Sunday, March 30, 2014 7:39 AM Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] Screen Saver for Laptop Trish. I agree with Mike. It is better to keep the no screen savers option. In fact, screen savers are probably not needed by anyone any more. In years past when monitors were CRT tubes they had a chance of burning in a patteren on the screen if one thing was on the screen all of the time. That is why screen savers were used, they refreshed the screen with changing patterns. Burning in of the screen doesn't happen any more with the new digital screens. So screen savers are no longer needed . Some people still like them because they create interesting patterns or shapes or something else on the screen that they find visually pleasing.
