Sno ReviewWon't save screensaver prefs - Version: 2006.12.8, 12/10/2006 08:27AM PST

This is a really cool app especially for those of us who love winter and snow. The only problem I've come across though is in the screensaver: I keep trying to change the preferences, but once I quit system preferences the sno prefs go back to default. Any suggestions?

Hi,

Versiontracker is accidentally still pointing to the old version. The correct URL gives you the the universal binary which works perfectly well on intel Macs, also as screen saver.

Besides, the CPU usage is by far too high, regardless fo the slider setting. 30% on a Core2Duo is by far too much. A pity, as the app is really nice otherwise!
