Selecting a screen saver
You may have heard that your display might be damaged if you leave it on
for a long time without using your computer because the image can “burn
in” on the LCD panel. You may have heard that you should use a screen saver
to avoid this damage.
Color LCD panels are not subject to “burn in,” so a screen saver is not
absolutely necessary. But, screen savers can be very attractive, and are
particularly useful if you want to keep others from viewing your screen while
you are away from your computer.
Windows supplies a variety of screen savers that you can chose from, and
many more are available from the Web and as commercial products.
