Stupid question on my part but do macs actually support something like this? I know windows does but it's an active desktop type thing.

I use these two:

Snö (http://www.ittpoi.com/sno/) (falling snow)

and

X-MasTree (http://www.jschilling.net/sw_xmastree.php) (christmas tree)

I'm sure there's others around if you look!
