[SLE] Screen saver with LCD monitor still useful?????



I wonder if a screen saver with a LCD monitor still useful is.

With CRT monitors the screen saver helped not to burn in a picture, but that reason is not anymore with LCD.

A screen saver is fine, if somebody enters your office and so not "destructed" from your current work on the screen. However, a hot key to blank out the screen or start a screen saver would (in my opinion) be better, than a permanent process, taking cpu cycles and memory away from your current work!
