I don't read the group regularly.

But I guarantee that if you try to tell me that I can't run a screen saver on
my machine, then I'll tell you to jump off a bridge.  (Disclaimer : I probably
will be somewhat less polite than that.)

Telling me "Oh, you can run our program, *and* if you want to run a screen
saver
for some stupid reason, you can run out screensaver" isn't any better.

You'll lose more cpu cycles than you'll gain if you try to tell people "Do
it our way
or else".  

I run Prime NT as a service.  I run a screensaver, *just because I like
it*.  IF you tell
me that I can't do that, *I* will dump PrimeNT in a heartbeat.  There isn't
anything
in it for me.  I do it to help out, because it sounded like a cool project.
 Now you
guys think you are big brother, able to control what I can and can't do with my
machine.  That plan sucks.
