As announced a while ago, here is the first installment of the documents from the archive of Swiss Cracking Association<\/strong>, the legendary C64<\/abbr> and Amiga<\/abbr> cracking<\/abbr> and demo<\/abbr> group from Zurich. The core of the group were two brothers: Saturnus the Invincible and Smith the Software Pope. While Saturnus’ responsibility within the group was more on the coding\/cracking side – including the crack<\/a> of “Summer Games” with the hacked-in Swiss anthem, and, of course, the infamous SCA Virus<\/a> -, Smith tended to focus on the communication side of things. Today, we present you with scans from his stash, including letters from all over the world, as well as a really rare set of internal documents: two versions of SCA’s address list [version 1<\/a> \/ version 2<\/a>] as well as two greeting lists [list 1<\/a> \/ list 2<\/a>]!<\/p>\n
