After Dark Screensavers

Just throwing out an idea.

Apple should buy all the intellectual property / software associated with After Dark screensavers (every single version). Berkeley Systems was the software company who made this, not sure who owns it now. These screensavers were the greatest and then they just disappeared. Apple's built-in screensaver selection for macOS has been pretty minimal for years. It would be so great if for a retro feature they included all the old After Dark screensavers in macOS (Flying Toasters, Starry Night, etc etc etc).

Wouldn't it be great if they included this as a fun new (old) feature in the next version of macOS? Some '90s Mac vibes for our modern silicon Macs.

Holding out a slim hope that someone from Apple sees this.

Great idea, but I doubt it will ever happen. The Apple employees who might see this are probably not in a position to make things happen.

After Dark had some great ones. I remember one called 'Saw' that "cut off pieces of the screen" one by one, crashing them to the "floor". And 'Bill Gates Does Windows' featuring him "cleaning" the screen.
