Group 42 Goes Public

Silicon Valley North (CA) - Group 42, the elusive hacker group that
published the controversial 1988 publication "Hacking, Cracking, Phun 
and Games" rocked the computer world again today with their CD-ROM 
release "Group 42 Sells Out! The Information Archive".

Kevin Clark a long time contributor to the underground USENET group
alt.2600 said "The standards have been raised in the H/P CD-ROM 
publishing business, I never thought I'd ever find a Hacker disc this 
good, and I've tried them all."

"Best Hacker/Phreaker Disc I've ever seen" stated Stevyn Prothero the
publisher of the highly regarded underground zine the Iron Feather 
Journal.

"I can't believe they did it" said Imbie a long time resident of the 
Warez community.  "They are giving away the crown jewels of the 
Underground".

Nickle one of the founders of Group42 said "This release represents a 
new era in publishing from the underground, no longer is the world stuck 
with a disc full of inaccessible internet shovelware... anyone with the 
'archive' who can read and use a mouse can have full access to the 
knowledge of the Hacker/Phreaker community plus never before released 
information that will shake the world for years... we are hoping to 
inspire a whole new generation of digital explorers with this disc."

The Information Archive also brakes new ground in CD-ROM publishing by 
being the one of the first CD-ROM to be published fully in HTML format,
making it usable on any make of computer.  "This release is sure to be
the catalyst of many more titles published in HTML format... I'm
surprised no one has thought of this before" said Nickle of the release.
