Works fine on ICBM iMac 17 - Version: 20070607, 6/15/2007 07:56AM PST

Downloaded, installed, and tested fine on the initial run-through. You need a faster machine for better resolution, and the pref pane warns you of this. Nice work!

Doesn't work. Tried every way possible to get this thing to work. Wasted time. Sorry developer. Just my opinion. Maybe the next one will work.

Doesn't work at all - Version: 20070607, 6/9/2007 02:30PM PST

Won't work at all. Appears in the screensaver list, but won't preview and won't kick in. Says it is designed to run on OS 10.1 and 10.2, but who is still running one of those? How about 10.4.9?
