While some may not fill the entire screen, they have a black boarder that goes nice with the saver.

Also for your dual monitors - can't you just select clone when you have to step away?? or is that a hassel?

You know the cool, trippy screen saver thats default on most macs? Looks something like this...


Well, I've been using the windows one for quite sometime now and its simply sweet looking. I had dual screen for awhile and it works beautifully with it. You can select to have one "flurry" on each screen on one giant one across all the screens. Give it a try! My new widescreen LCD comes next week and you better believe it will be on that!

It looks really impressive on the Macs in my office at work... heh... I wonder what colour the Mac users will turn when they see it running on a Windows PC? :lol:

It looks nice - thanks I like the RGB setting as it goes WS for that one

Ahhh, good old flurry. Subtle, understated yet impressive. One of my favorite screensavers. :)

Mm. I'm not a great screensaver fan (I prefer just to have the monitor power down when there is no activity) but this is one of the better ones, in my opinion at least. :) I also quite like the 'Matrix' screensaver in linux. ;)

RE: "I also quite like the 'Matrix' screensaver in linux."

Is that similar to the Windows one?

I guess. Except it comes with it by default. ;)

there sure doesn't seem to be very many native wide-screen savers

I always meant to post in here but never did but never got around to it. My 3 favorite screensavers for wide/multiple monitor setups are My Pictures slideshow, zMatrix, and UC3D's matrix one.

I don't think that My Pictures Slideshow needs any introduction as it comes with Windows by default.


zMatrixis a little app that pulls double duty as a desktop background app and a screensaver. It can do either of these functions together or independently of each other. Also, it uses very little system resources, and just looks fantastic when you get the settings just right. I don't have triplehead (yet) but I imagine that this would look absolutely amazing on 3 monitors.

UC3D is a screensaver app that manages multiple screensavers from the creator's website. There are only 2 of that I know work with multiple monitors but as far as I know they all work with widescreen. The matrix UC3D screensaver is very CPU and probably video card intensive however, so watch out. This screensaver may be more customizable than zMatrix, but it's still a toss up on which one would win for me.

Most 3planesoft screensaver have widescreen resolutions aswell and they do look very stunning . I like the koi one the best 8)

Found this site via Google the other day and have downloaded and now use the Hyperspace screensaver. It's AWESOME so I'd recommend giving them a try. The website is http://www.reallyslick.com/
