In other words, it may not be the best screen saver for general use.
You can grab the source code () here.
Note that this is a real screen saver. The paddles and ball are obviously not static. The font for the time/score is designed so that no pixels are always on. The "net" alternates its on and off parts every the hour.

It may now be suitable for general use. The screen saver is here and the source is here.
