RSS Feed Screensaver without Quartz?

I have an old iBook G3 500Mhz that cannot use Quartz. I want to know if there is a RSS screensaver that doesn't use Quartz? Something similar to what is included in Tiger.

Thanks
 
Sorry that it's taken so long for you to get an answer, #1 Rhapsody. I'll see if I can find something. In the meantime, have you tried googling for an RSS screensaver that would run under OS X? I don't think you'll find one that's similar to that in Tiger, but it would be something that would probably run reliably on that iBook.
 
Unfortunately, I believe that project still uses the Quartz rendering engine for the screensaver. Although with a little programming savvy, one may be able to remove the Quartz dependencies... ?
 
I tried to see if the XScreensavers for Mac OS X had a screensaver that did RSS feeds, but no luck. I wish that Phosphor would show RSS feeds as that is a pretty cool screensaver.
