Description: Berkeley Systems, Inc. was founded in the 80's by the husband-and-wife team of Wes Boyd and Joan Blades, to create handicapped access software for the Macintosh. Soon after, their friend Jack Eastman suggested the idea of a modular screensaver as an alternative to the plethora of single-display screensavers then popular. Making a modular screensaver meant providing some modules, so they made a handful of them, including the rather odd concept of the Flying Toasters. Sales of After Dark rapidly swamped the original Access Software, and the company achieved iconic status in the Macintosh community.
