- The Future Boys — Austria, founded 1986
An Austrian crack intro coded by Glerc, with graphics by co-founder Salem. A CSDb comment notes this intro was ripped from "Mega Intro 1.0" by Glerc — a common practice where groups repurposed existing intro frameworks for new releases. The intro runs silent, with the visual presentation carried by Salem's artwork and a scrolltext. The Future Boys were founded in 1986 by Mordlord and Salem in Austria, active until November 1989. The group produced 113 releases spanning cracks, demos, and other scene productions. Salem served as both coder and graphician while Mordlord handled cracking and organization. TFB hosted a copy party in July 1989 — one of their final activities before dissolving that November. A second group shared the name, but the Swiss "Future Boys" (CSDb ID 5923) were a separate entity entirely.
