I'll let everyone in on a little secret: screen savers are meaningless anyway on modern monitors. The old Compacts needed 'em. I have *yet* to see an Apple-branded colour monitor with burn-in anywhere *NEAR* as bad as what I've see on Compacts. Modern (read: since about '92) colour monitors simply don't need their screens "saved." The only point of a screen saver any more is eye candy. Which isn't to say people don't like eye candy. Just don't pretend you're doing your screen a favour ;) -- the pickle FAQ <http://macfaq.org/index.shtml> _________________________________________________________________ -- Quadlist is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
