The MAC screensaver of seductive and hypnotic Beaches of Paradise 'smoothly panning and zooming around' in high resolution, is just about the best screensaver I have ever seen. It's also very theraputic too.
I have been trying to look for an exact PC (Win XP) equivalent but have not come accross a version yet. I did have a quick look in versiontracker.com and event emailed the info contact address on that site, but I have not come accross one just yet :(
I would love a MAC and believe they are machines of desire, but I have to stick with my PC because of the programs I use.

what programs do you use? why do you need to stick to a pc? you will probably find that the mac runs equivalent programs better than a pc... if not buy a mac, that beach screensaver is worth the money alone! those deckchairs look so good! what are they? pine or oak? hmm..

above all, I need something to remind me of a mac and this screensaver would do just that (constantly) :)
