Remote Desktop

Or maybe I could have the wallpaper automatically changed every 20 minutes on the 2nd screen somehow??! I wish I knew automator better :)

So if you are working on the second screen using e.g. XP in Fusion, then you can have the screensaver on the second screen. If both are running Mac OS X, then no. Unless the other screen is with VNC or Remote Desktop connected to another Mac's Mac OS X, or you are running Mac OS X (Server)...
