Go to any arcade. Observe how every CRT in the place has "Insert £1
Now!" faintly displayed in the center of the screen, regardless of the
image from the video card...
The idea of a screen saver is that it displays different images so that
no one particular area of the screen gets unduely stimulated. But lots
of modern screen savers display static or nearly static images...
