- <<If you're working in a lab or office with a lot of other people,
- a new Duo or PB is irresistable. As soon as you walk away from you
- desk curious people come over and innocently fiddle with it. After
- Dark offers a screen lock screen saver that requires a password.
- So there are a couple uses for Screen Saver (albeit not their original
- purpose).

- And when that After Dark password dialog comes up, all those curious people
- need to do is hit cmd-option-esc and away they go.
-
- One might be better advised to get Norton's Essentials or CPU and lock the
- PowerBook down with a password at startup and awaken. In any case, it's
- probably better for the PowerBook to be asleep or shut down rather than
- running with a screensaver.
