I didn't even know people still used them! Just go classic pipes or 3d text bouncing around.

Yeah, weren't screensaves made to prevent burn-in on old CRTs which nobody uses anymore?

While true that screen savers are no longer necessary to prevent burn in , i like to use them as a visual cue that my PC is still running.

+ it looks better then just a black screen .
