Jun 4, 2008 - Here, in no particular order, are 10 free Mac screen savers that I love. Beautiful, ever-changing strands of light move across the screen.

I love this time of year. I love the lights and the snow and the holiday cookies. I also love getting my Mac in the festive spirit. From to to, there are countless ways to dress your Mac for Christmas.

Here are four festive screen savers. Best of all, they're free. By Idle Time Software displays Christmas or Hannukah lights like you'd see them if you were rocketing through your neighborhood in a Ferrari. There are four color schemes, including a beautiful blue and white Hanukkah theme. It requires Mac OS X 10.4 + (including Snow Leopard) and the Flash plugin.

It's strangely hypnotic as the screen rotates around a beautifully generated 3D tree while Christmas music plays in the background. Mac OS X 10.5 + (including Snow Leopard). Is a simple little saver that shows an ornate pocket watch ticking the time away as the holidays pass us. This gets a mention as one of my favorites because of the 3D snow that gently drizzles down the screen. Mac OS X 10.5 + (including Snow Leopard).

Contrary to popular belief, this screen saver was never used in Apple's retail stores (that one was, sadly, Apple-internal only). Since updating to 10.6.2, Snowfall experiences slight jitters.
