     I have it set for 2 minutes for the screensaver, and 3 minutes for   
   power off of the monitor.

     Very much so. That first system I got as a birthday present in 1992   
   (where The Thunderbolt BBS began just 6 weeks later), had "burn in" on   
   the monitor.   
      
     A friend of mine (and my brothers) was working at Arkansas Children's   
   Hospital near downtown Little Rock back then...they were upgrading all   
   their computers. So, the old one to them was my first IBM system...with   
   640K of RAM (Bill Gates said that should be enough for anybody ), a   
   3.5" and a 5.25" floppy drive, a 20 meg hard drive, a keyboard, a mouse,   
   and DOS 3.20 -- my, how things have changed!!
