You know, LCDs still burn in. It's arguably more efficient to just
blank them than display a 'saver, although you run the risk of people
thinking their PCs have crashed or are off.

However, burn-in is not a historical problem. I have seen quite a few
burned-in TFTs and as people don't think it happens any more, they're
not taking precautions and it's on the rise.
