Question:
Engine Screensaver
I switched over to Suse 10.1 for a while, but then I switched back. But the thing I miss is the cool screensaver I had!! It was the one with the cutaway view of the engine running. And you could set all these parameters like cylinders, etc. Is there one like this for windows?

How about a screensaver with a
D DOHC 4 cylinder engine being constructed from a bare casting and shows the various components being bolted onto the engine block. When the assembly is complete, the engine begins to run, showing an individual cylinder running through all 4 strokes.

That one is cool, although I was kind of hoping for one with a V8...

Re: Engine Screensaver
I have one on my notebook (I'm at work right now so I don't have it here).
It builds the engine and then shows it running. I think the file is too large for me to send thourgh e-mail though.
If you're interested in seeing it let me know. I could upload it on rapidshare for you.

I have a screen saver from http://smallblockscreensaver.com. It doesn't show the engine running, it just shows the construction of a GenIV small block. I think its great, very detailed and it has a playlist option to play music when it turns on. You can pick from a 6.2L Vortec, LS2, or both.

The easier solution would be to just move back to Linux, but that's me.
Anyway, that screen saver is an OpenGL screen saver designed for Linux, so I doubt you'll be able to get it on Windows. You'll have to get an alternative. There have been some good ones suggested here.

Re: Engine Screensaver
I'll try to remember to upload it tonight (after I'm done formatting my notebook). If not, someone should PM me to remind me.
