Flying Toasters Screensaver

Reading Time: < 1 minute

Remember the days of the flying toaster screen saver? “Flying Toasters” was a must have item for any computer owner in the late 80’s and early 90’s.

A company called Berkeley Systems released a screen saver application called After Dark in 1989. The Flying Toasters were just one of the many different screen saver modules included with After Dark, but they were by far the most popular.

Unfortunately for us Toaster fans, the owners of Berkeley Systems, Wes Boyd and Joan Blades, sold their company to Sierra On-Line in 1997. (A year later, they founded MoveOn.org). Since then, the world has been toasterless… until now!
