Burn-in is a phenomenon that isn't exclusively limited to computers but displays in generals (yes, even your TV can get burn-in). It dates back to the times when the first displays were based on cathode ray tubes (CRTs) that relies on a electron "gun" that shoots at a phosphor screen. Over time when a specific screen or image is displayed for a too long of a time the image gets "permanently burned-in", and that's why the first screensavers were designs. Over time, display technology did get better and burn-in is less of a problem but may still occur in liquid crystal displays (LCD), and screensavers no longer have the use of protecting said screens from burn-in and is more likely to be used to prevent from a nosy person from peeking.

Do vacuum tubes in computers burn out like light bulbs?
Yes, vacuum tubes in computers burn out. Transistors are much better. Vacuum tube computers no longer exist except in museums. Vacuum tube computers were originally made in World War 2 to calculate the positioning of antiaircraft guns. It was not necessary to know where the airplane was but where it would be when the explosive arrived. That was especially true when the Germans developed the buzz bomb going 450 miles an hour. When hundreds of transistors could fit in the same area as one vacuum tube, the vacuum tube vanished.
