Love it! I've long used a 3D screensaver of Saturn, its rings and its moons, generated from the images sent back by the Voyager, Pioneer and Cassini probes - you can get the same or other planets/space screensavers at http://www.fpsoftlab.com - they're beautiful. The images of sunrise over the dark horizon of Saturn and her rings (like the eclipse shot at the beginning of 2001) are soooo cool. Who wouldn't say Saturn is a fascinating world, nevermind it's an open question whether any man is gonna go there in my lifetime!
