@joesteel YES, please, someone…anyone… put the flying toasters here! https://www.thespherevegas.com

equinox_deschanel,

@joesteel Frost and Fire (the video feedback one) was my go-to. Actually miss that one; it was unique.

Night,

@joesteel Aww! And the toilets and toilet paper version, too!

THEDisneyGeek,

@joesteel I don’t miss it daily, but yes. I especially miss the Disney version they had. At least I think it was them.

@joesteel I actually setup a DOSBox-X vm recently and even actually installed AfterDark in it just for the sheer heck of it, lol.

robojase,

@joesteel I miss the whole After Dark lineup, and still remember the words to the flying toaster song

@robojase I didn’t even know there was a song

kraft,

@joesteel the height of personal computing.

jaytorres,

@joesteel I remember installing screensavers from a CD ROM. 👴🏼

@jaytorres 3.5” floppy disk 💀

antiproton,

@joesteel yeppers lol

AirlockDoc,

@joesteel I always loved the fish tank screensavers. Toasters are okay, but a bunch of Nemo and Dory’s is soothing.

@joesteel #XScreenSaver by @jwz comes with jet-propelled #FlyingToasters: https://youtu.be/mLGDvtbFvfg

There is also a third-party saver that displays the classic wing-flapping model: https://github.com/torunar/flying-toasters-xscreensaver

@joesteel It never went away! (Infinisys seems to hold the After Dark rights.) https://en.infinisys.co.jp/product/afterdarkclassicset/index.shtml

ConnertheCat,

@joesteel Man, this was one thing I was always envious of the Mac users for in the early 90s as a PC person.

(I did have a pretty dope TNG Screensaver pack though)
