after dark wasn't frivolous. it prevented damage to the CRT, and apple didn't offer a similar thing... not equivalent to the app. now such things are superfluous because mac os has a screensaver app.
people are very attached to after dark. for one reason it was one of the few animations people saw on their computers ,and people just naturally like cartoons. i remember trying to delete everything except one animation to save space on my 20MB drive. that was 1991.
