Introduction and questions

Not yet sure what I'll do regarding a screen saver as all these older laptops are most commonly 2008 era 'give or take'.

I'm not sure you'd really have any problems with screen burn on 2008 laptops, but if you're concerned you can always use the power manager to blank the screens during inactivity just like a screensaver. Here is a shot of my setup. I never leave my laptop up and running if I'm not actively on it. That's the reason for all the "Never" settings while plugged in. I only have the "On Battery" settings set to blank the screen, put to sleep, etc, etc to keep from totally draining my battery. About the only real difference between using a screensaver and using Power Management is there isn't a pretty picture on the desktop with Power Manager.

Just a thought.
