ummm, I use powersave mode... Screensavers were only around so people didn't "CRT Burn" their monitors... I have an LCD, and therefore no use for a screensaver.

I would have to disagree with ya on that one. I have seen very new CRT's burned because people have no screensaver, and they don't use powersave or turn their monitors off...

It's a shame really.

Screensavers

Don't use any. The 26" LCD/TV/Monitor looks great.
Don't even use wallpaper. Why bother, I'm always
in a program or two or three, sometimes more.

LCD's do generate more heat than CRT's.
I turn power off to the monitor if I will be gone
for a few hours or more.

Power, never change power settings. No hibernate.
No powersave. Nada, zip, nothing.
'Course we're talkin' desktops.

Axim, no screen saver. Few themes and a few animated
themes too.

I would have to disagree with ya on that one. All CTR's made after '92 and have SOA TCO or whatever don't have this issue anymore. I don't quite remember the date but I think it was '92. We have planty CRTt's running almost 24/7 (we do use powersaving of course but anly for... power saving :D )
