My new screen saver, definitely.
It does help if you can appreciate exactly what goes on in Cavendish to make it do what it does. Sure, it's not super pretty, but it's cool when you know what's going on. Only suggestions would perhaps be some more detailed documentation besides the tool tips of how it works, and how changing certain values change the sim.
Very nice little saver, complimenting a very nice program (Cavendish). Good stuff.

I find this screensaver to be a _revelation_. I have an iMac G5, and the minimalist beauty of Cavendish is a perfect complement to my calmly designed, beautiful new machine. I am in love with this huge menu of settings, and the fact that the screensaver can be set anywhere from a placid, idly rotating pattern, to a more intense one that makes the processor fan come on, to one that is so incredibly powerful that it basically makes the System Preferences choke...universes colliding! I am the Kreator! Maybe some of the reviewers want patterns of poorly-drawn crap (toasters, anyone?) floating around their screens, but not I. This saver is perfection. Seven thumbs up.Reply to This
