	Screen savers *technically* aren't neccesary unless you plan upon
leaving the same image on your monitor for weeks on end. (flame away, Nate)
However, people seem to like to use them as another way of "personalizing"
their computer. If you turn off your monitor (this is my screen blanker),
you will not need a screen saver.

: one if it is much better. 

	For shareware stuff, I'd go with UltraBlank; it's very stable, and 
it's the only screen saver that didn't make me lose incoming characters
@ 14.4k in GNO. Commercially, Twilight II is a very impressive package that's
soon to be updated.
