Publisher's description
From ZERGE :This is a radar display simulation screensaver. The application displays realistic animation including up to 100 objects, relief noises, digital object markers, and sector displays. The terrain map is projected onto the screen, and there’s a sound playing after object detection. Multimonitor support is included. Radar Screensaver has settings to configure all the parameters: traffic intensity, rotation speed and direction, three grid sets, adjustable animation smoothness, and variable colors. Version 1.6 features perfomance and appearance fixes, new grid set, and sound.
You may use this software for evaluation purposes for a limit of 20 minutes. After 20 minutes, the screensaver will show a grayed animation. In addition, it will show a reminder ("nag window") window before setting its parameters. The evaluation period is limited by 21 days. After it expires, the time of normal operation will decrease from 20 minutes to one.

Version: Radar Screensaver 1.6
"An awesomely realistic screensaver. A1+ design."
Pros: This baby must have been a real labour of love for it's designer/programmer. Lots of user-options to customise the colours; grid type; sounds; scan speed and number of contacts visible.
Kina relaxing to watch too; I've found myself gazing at the thing for ages. The only way you could improve its realism is by rigging a revolving trash-can lid to your roof!
Cons: No cons really; apart from having to pay for the full version, but that's no great deal for this kind of quality. Might consider adding various samples of ground-to-air radio traffic as on option in future versions.

Version: Radar Screensaver 1.6
Pros: being a sci-fi fan and long time aerophile this is one of the coolest svreen savers I have seen in a while. Great attention to detail.
Cons: would like to see(hear) some radio chatter or perhaps a way to have your own waves play while the screen saver is running

Version: Radar Screensaver 1.6
"Comprehensive, elegant sample of programming"
Pros: As close to the real thing as I've ever seen. Not the usual space-filler, this program is an example of total immersion and interaction with the programmer and the program. This is not just another screen-saver, it is a tool for learning.

Version: Radar Screensaver 1.6
"Brilliant and delightful. Fascinating to watch. Original."
Pros: This product is extremely interesting to watch. It is unlike the usual visual effects or scenery in that a realistic looking routine is taking place. If you like aviation, you will like this one!
Cons: Needs a readme.txt explaining the notations on the radar screen. Needs sound, perhaps beeps as aircraft appear and possibly recordings of air traffic control transmissions.
