Are the the screen saver graphics showing the actual processing of the data or is it just made to look pretty?

Actual processing of the data at least for S@H. For other projects the answer may be different (LHC for example is just pretty, but CPDN and Einstein are real).

I prefer the older graphics as well, I guess some of us are a little resistant to change.

Nobody in this thread stated anything about preferring the older graphics. This thread was a question about the current graphics and if they displayed the actual processing of data.
