Rep Power: 10 DaWei is on a distinguished road
In the days of dumb monitors one needed a screensaver. It saved the screen from burn-in. Nowadays, why would one want one? If I want to see a pretty picture, I look at my walls, not my monitor. If I'm using the monitor, I'm not looking at the screensaver! I'm sorry, this gives me a picture of a person without a life or work to accomplish or information to glean or fun to be had sitting before the machine watching the fish swim or the stars recede. Strictly personal outlook, of course. Your mileage may vary.
