on my imac, can i leave dashboard up all day????? I like it better then the screensaver...

Um, I guess you could if you wanted to... Just disable your screensaver and bring Dashboard up - that should do the trick...

You can if you want but you could get a burn in.

Not on an LCD monitor. Well, nothing permanent.

You are correct. Unless of course the OP is using a plasma display with his Mac...

...Or an original iMac.

If you're interested, Dasher will activate your dashboard after a predetermined amount of time (just like a screen saver).

No no no, don't be silly, I meant the soon-to-be-released-at-MWSF 38.4" plasma iMac...

Just out of curiosity, Cybergypsy, what do you have on your Dashboard (that you'll leave up)?

I like the idea - might use it myself
