What happened to all the standard ones?!? I mean ones that i would 'actually' use like Windows Vista Aurora/ Logo etc etc.....the simple ones not the childish balloons or mistify ones

All a screensaver does is increases CPU/GPU utilisation when the system should be idle, so they're not worth using anyway.

Yup

Either tell your computer to sleep, or the monitor to sleep

If you're going to be gone long enough that the screen saver needs to kick in, put computer to sleep and switch off the monitor.
