Until this moment, I had completely forgotten about Flying Toasters. And Flying Windows. And, for that matter, the entire After Dark collection of cheesetastic mid-90s screensavers PC-based performance art.
Thankfully, the Internet was there to remind me. Mental Floss’s Chris Higgins has gathered a collection often of the most pixellatedly wondrous screensavers from the era when screens were so fragile that they needed to be saved. He has done this so that you may reminisce, and contemplate the passage of time, and otherwise mystify your mind.
