69 The original After Dark flying toasters, with the fluffy white wings,
70 were a trademark of Berkeley Systems. Berkeley Systems ceased to exist
71 some time in 1998, having been gobbled up by Sierra Online, who were
72 subsequently gobbled up by Flipside and/or Vivendi (it's hard to tell
73 exactly what happened when.)
74
75 I doubt anyone even cares any more, but if they do, hopefully this
76 homage, with the space-age 3D jet-plane toasters, will be considered
77 different enough that whoever still owns the trademark to the fluffy-
78 winged 2D bitmapped toasters won't get all huffy at us.
