revision 1.1 - 22 September, 2005

Bentley Sidwell Productions was originally a division of the Houston, Texas based anarchy group known as Legions of Lucifer Inc.

The famous cracker Lord Blix was it's original founder and leader, though other people such as The Guch and Iron Glove also took on leadership positions.

It has been said BSP were the first PC group to include an external loader (a cracktro) in their releases, though this is now seems not to be the case. But they can probably be still credited with being the first PC group to include a regular text file (in the form of a readme.bsp file) using a layout that would not be too dissimilar to a more modern NFO.

In early 1989 BSP merged with newly created BCC/Five O, which was renamed The Firm.
