Works ok under 10.4.2 for me, however at max resolution setting it runs extremely slowly on my G5 dual processor machine. I shouldn't have to have a better machine than this to max the potential of a screen saver.

Also, I like this - but with so many amazingly good free screen savers available I find it hard to justify spending even $5 for what is essentially "useless software"

Like desktop puddles, the screen is torn into horizontal lines on a black background, useless and indecipherable. However, the preview in the Apple desktop settings dialog is correct.

Works with 10.4.2 without crashing or freezing the system. Does what it says, with a number of display options.

I'm not sure what I was expecting, but this is certainly different. I'm pleased with the stability. It's not quite my style, but it may be for others.
