2.0 out of 5 stars Cartoonish
This is a not very good CGI portrayal of underwater scenes. The CGI is fair to poor. The sharks and other animations are so medicore that they almost appear cartoonish. It is a very poor imitation of the Windows XP aquarium screensaver which was many times more realistic and satisfying than this version.

In addition, the installation disables your control...

This is a not very good CGI portrayal of underwater scenes. The CGI is fair to poor. The sharks and other animations are so medicore that they almost appear cartoonish. It is a very poor imitation of the Windows XP aquarium screensaver which was many times more realistic and satisfying than this version.

In addition, the installation disables your control over the screensaver functions in Vista. You are stuck with the pre-installed factory settings and I have yet to find a way to vary any of them.

I regret spending the money, and, the time wasted installing it and un-installing it.

This is another example of a product that had no consumer feedback before marketing executives and packaging designers patted themselves on the back.

Save your time and money.
