And I believe they would say the groups are not the same just because they do not want to be associated with cracks (The group's members became well known in the intustry and old cracking sins are probably a bit embarrassing). But that is of course irrelevant. I will look into this further. If anyone know more, please join the discussion.

I have started to find stuff by Lazer, and indeed, in one of the releases he is obviously friend with Jaws, Source and BAF .357. LAzer seems to have been a member of The Delta Force before joining Boy's without Brains. I do believe Boy's without Brains and Boys without Brains is the same group.

I think this was just a misunderstanding - it IS a different group after all. Thanks to Acidchild's amazing archive, I have found another crack by them, trained by Infinity! - and if you check the comments under this group, they had contacts to Softrunner Group from NL. Thus I could also identify the members BAF .357 and Source. Now only left to find out is about Lazer and Wiz.

Now this is strange indeed. Why would he first confirm the groups to be the same, and then suddenly deny it?

Strange. I just got confirmation from Jaws that this is not done by Boys without Brains. He said that BWB never cracked games.

The poor boys are without brains because zombies already ate them. How these boys are still functioning is a scientific mystery.
Maybe their brains weren't eaten after all, but are located someplace else. You know what they say about men's brains when they see a beautiful girl. lol

Someone can ask Hein about it?
A Dutch team named Boys Without Brains made an Amiga game called Disposable Hero and our Hein Holt did the (rather amazing) graphics

If boy is a zombie, he'll have to go to bed hungry then. :-D

I think it can be safely assumed that this is indeed the Dutch group - the greetings list contains greets to the (later) members The Intruder and Dr.G .

It could also be Dutch. I think it might be the same as the Boys Without Brains (Boys without Brains), because the screenshot shows greetings to Bruce Li, which later on is released by BWB in a digitized photo. (Jaws & Bruce Li).

"idiot" apostrophe might indicate German origin (or just lack of brains)
