This is the screen saver (featuring Berkeley Breathed's characters) that got Delrina into a lawsuit with Berkeley Systems over its use of Flying Toasters in a parody, or rather this is the censored version that resulted from the lawsuit, and consequently sold in droves because of the publicity.

"Featuring the Intermission Engine."

There is a Far Side Calendar which I believe is in black and white. Does that come with the screensaver, do you know?

I remember you could copy and paste tiny 72dpi Larson comics and print/send them.

Apart from the comic panel, it was a pretty plain calendar.

Thanks for sharing this.

I heard of this lawsuit mentioned and have always been interested in seeing the original "Death Toasters" version of this module, which is the original version which featured shooting toasters (that looked like the Flying Toasters in After Dark) by two characters.

I know it still exists somewhere, has anyone ever even seen it? Much less have it? I've never actually even seen it personally, but I'd love to have it!

Thanks guys.

I'm hoping someone else will upload a screenshot or three; I'm really pressed for time today. I also have a Far Side screensaver from Delrina that I will upload when I get a minute...
