KeriJane Posted August 4, 2008 Share Posted August 4, 2008 Hello. Congratulations on getting your system up and going. My fave Mac screensavers? Beach. Cosmos. Nature Patterns. Forest. As a bonus these just display various pictures and should run smoothly. The RSS feed one is cool and so is "Word of the Day". My really favorite one is Marine Aquarium... a 23" Cinema Display makes an excellent fish tank. Have Fun, Keri Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/119116-whats-your-fav-screensaver/#findComment-844053 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Espionage724 Posted August 4, 2008 Share Posted August 4, 2008 The Kernel Panic Screensaver It does surprise me sometimes.
