Universal Christmas Poo

Did I release the very first third-party screensaver for Intel Macs? It seems like it! I released the latest version of the Mister Hankey Screensaver way back in November, compiled as a Universal Binary so that it would work on Intel Macs. I didn't have access to a developer Intel Mac, so I had a friend try it briefly and verify that it worked.

Now that Intel Macs are actually available, I checked versiontracker's Mac Intel page to see what else was out there. Imagine my surprise when I found only five other Mac Intel screensavers there, all of them released in the past couple weeks! Google can't seem to find anything else, either.

So, as far as I can tell, Mister Hankey is the first screensaver ever released for Intel Macs by a third party. Hooray!
