One noticeable difference is:

One interesting difference is:
Reg Hardware has following version:

It's been a month and ten days since Reg Hardware previewed Intel's Core2 Duo processor, but now we have the official, shipping, ready-to-slap-in-your-PC product. So is it really as good as the early numbers indicated? Read on, read on...

So is it really as good as the early numbers indicated? Rikku and Pete, our Chief Technician have tested it, and i have been sent these details for you lovely bunch! Along with a nice bunch of pics and stats taken by Rikku herself!

Since Antony posted some more interesting evidence in Metropol forum (see Antony's above post, or the "NEW COMPUTER" thread of Metropol) Tidus has seen it fit to delete the entire KJC website aside from it's forum. Luckily we have preserved that evidence.

See these screenshots:





This is a direct rip-off of this post at HEXUS, a very popular UK based tech enthusiast site.

Also, see this PDF document. ("KJC Reviews Intel ‘Conroe’ Core 2 Duo and Core 2 Extreme") It is clearly a direct rip-off of this review at The Register, a popular UK based tech news site.

I guess he's not only living in a fantasy world but he's also a little slow on the draw in removing all of the incriminating material. Actually, some of that may be copyright protected in which case he could find himself in very serious trouble, particularly since the evidence has been preserved by others. When we spin a web of lies, eventually we entrap ourselves. Besides, it's not a good way to live, having to constantly look over our shoulder to see if someone has caught us up in our deceiving ways. Better to live our lives honestly and truthfully. I must admit, you guys are good!

I've a question for you both. What about internet archives? Even though Tidus has taken the trouble and time to race back and try and erase all of the lies and incriminating evidence, is it truly erased and gone or is it possible that once something enters the internet it is preserved in some fashion in spite of it having been later deleted?

Tidus seems to have no sense of ethics or morality. Tidus seems to have no qualms about plagiarizing the work of others and then claiming it as his own. Also the continuing threats against James, Antony, Dr Lobster* and others.

I couldn't find any of KJC computers websites in Archive.org. Google might have cached portions of the KJC website though. If you are after a particular section of the KJC site, chances are it can be found.

[James]

Well, somewhere in the past I read that everything that enters the public domain is cached and ultimately archived. I suppose there are reasons (security related) for this. I was concerned for Tidus in that he has uttered some rather serious threats (i.e. that he would kill another poster) along with the apparent fact that he has plagiarized the works (no doubt copyrighted) of commercial sites which could result in a lawsuit. Simply racing to take them down does not necessarily translate into their being permanently destroyed. I've a feeling they still reside on servers somewhere and was looking for confirmation of this. For instance, I know there is an internet archive and about a year ago I heard a spokesperson for an archiving group indicate that everything is ultimately archived. Whether or not this is true, I don't know. I do know, however, that we should all take a lesson from this and be very careful about what we say online.

I guess he's not only living in a fantasy world but he's also a little slow on the draw in removing all of the incriminating material.

Why would a multi-million company remove company history (company weblog) if there's nothing to hide?

James,

When Tidus first came to SillyDog701, I saw no reason to doubt what he said about "KJ Computers", although I did find it odd that such a "big" company with multiple branches around UK and around the world did not have a proper contact information. It was until recently, Tidus insulted me at first, but not just that, he had enough nerve to post a so-called "[sdt=12812]apology[/sdt]" also dared to complain that I 'nitpicked' it, I started to re-read all those stories about "KJ Computers" he wrote.

Something is worth noting. Each time when Dr Lobster* shows up (asking new questions), there is another bad news about "KJ Computers" coming up.

[Mandrake]

There is more evidence to be presented.

See this.

Tidus claims to have worked for Dell in 1998. Nine years ago.

Now see this quote from Tidus himself:

Well, i tell you this. I may be only 21, but i'm trained to defend myself,

As a proof that Tidus actually is telling the truth about his age (It's crazy isn't it?!) see this and this. Tidus graduated from Year 11 in 2001. The school he attended does not offer the Sixth form as an option. Clearly he was 16 at the time.

So Tidus worked for Dell nine years ago, when only aged 12? Hah. He just continues to dig his own grave. There is more evidence to be presented too. With the treasure trove that's been dug up we'll be here for another month or two at this rate!

[Tidus]

Right, Mandrake,

I can explain this one, to make you look like a fool. That post in the Dell forum was a mistake. I should have said "I am an ex-Dell employee, and worked for them AFTER they started using non-standard PSU's in September 1998" I didn't mean i started working for them in Sep 1998, even i know that's impossible.

I didn't change it at the time, i didn't think anything of it, because i didn't know pricks like you would go digging my history up. What do you want to know next, my cock size?

C'mon, i admit, i've lied about things, i have, and am working to change my life. Don't keep doing this to me. I'm controlling my temper here, but am pissed off with you thinking you're so damn smart.

I'm dropping the whole KJC crap, and starting again, and i want YOU and everyone to let me start fresh, and prove to you that i am not all bad. I didn't come on here to cause trouble, like i didn't join MP to cause trouble.

Let me start again. How can i turn my life round if you guys won't let me?

Finally, you admitted.

Exactly, what have you lied?

I'm going to tell you about part of my life that caused my downfall, this might explain it better.

In 2004, Kassie and I lost our first daughter, Ayane. She was stillborn. This hit us both really hard, and i went into deep depression. I was trying to set up KJ Computers Limited as a company with Rikku, but kept getting rejected by banks and other organisations for the loan amount i needed. I could get a little money, but not enough to start up in the way i wanted to. Rikku and I carried on freelance, but my depresion over losing my baby was taking hold, more and more. I started having crying outbursts, drinking heavily, and even took an Ecstasy pill before driving, rolled my van down an embankment, and nearly killed myself.

I had fallen out with my parents after being unemployed for a while, which was when i decided to put my PC skills to use, and set up as my own boss, which i had always wanted to do. Rikku and I managed to get a tiny shop in Manchester. Things started to pick up a little.

Then Kas's cousin lost her 3 year old daughter to heart failure in February 2005. I went to comfort her the morning it happened, and had to see her baby girl, dead, and it threw me back into depression. I started having nightmares, flashbacks and panic attacks. Rikku and I ended up almost bankrupt, and had to shut the company down, because i was the Director, and was in no fit state to run the company.

But, due to me being unfit, ill (perhaps even mentally) i claimed that the company was getting better, and made most of the stuff up that you guys have found out. I regret doing it, and i admit, i'm still not over the deaths of my two little angels, and never will be. My life has never been perfect.

I suppose i was trying to be someone i couldn't, and look where it's got me. I've made quite a lot of money up through freelance techie work, and suppose i used that as part of trying to make myself a hero.

It seems to have affected my attitude too. I never used to retaliate, be arrogant, or nasty, but all these events in my life have caused it all. You guys have helped me realise i was wrong, before i got into trouble, so i owe you all thanks for that. I assure you though, all KJC's staff that you claim are fake, are in fact, not. They're friends of mine, so is Rikku. I may not be the best looking guy out there, i'm not ugly either, but it's what's inside that matters.

I'm sorry everyone, and i take back all the hurtful things i have ever said, and hope you will help me get back to normal. I need all the help i can get. I wouldn't normally tell my personal stuff on a forum, but if it helps you understand why i did what i did, i don't mind.

I am stupid, and will make it up to you all, by changing my life, and turning it around, back to the good days.

Thanks everyone. Sorry Dr Lobster*, for threatening you. I don't mean any harm, and i'm sure you don't either ^^

whilst i feel that most people would empathise with your predicament, lying and continuing to lie in the way you have will forever make this community doubt your integrity, even now, i am doubting whether any of what you say is true and this is yet another excuse for your behaviour rather than a true and frank explanation. i strongly suspect you have asperger's syndrome or some other form of autism, notwithstanding this i would nevertheless hope that you would never lie about the death of your own child, this would be the worst kind of moral and intellectual bankruptcy.

the thing which makes me curious (and one of the first things to strike me as odd) is the sheer number of japanese people you seem to know (and in the past claim to have been employed by kjc), i say this is unusual, especially since, according to the last census, there must be less than 0.2 of the population fitting into that category (there isn't a category for japanese people, so the nearest category "Chinese or other ethnic group: Other ethnic group" has only 28 people in it for stretford) and you seem to know pretty much every one of those people - again, just an observation.

i also find it strange that you appear to live in the same house as greg - if you have a wife, why would greg be living with you? i have a partner and as much as i like my friends, i'm not sure i would want to share a house with them. the whole situation is deeply contradictory.

I would never lie about the death of my children, i agree with you, it would be sick. I'm not that ill. I'm not sure what conditions i have, but i've been to see the doctor, and numerous counsellors/shrinks, they've helped slightly. I've been on all sorts of medication, depressants, tranquilisers. I think in some way they altered my brain, making me act weird, and do things i wouldn't normally do. I know what you're saying about believing me, but this account is true, i felt i had to say it to make you all see why i've done the things i did.

the thing which makes me curious (and one of the first things to strike me as odd) is the sheer number of japanese people you seem to know (and in the past claim to have been employed by kjc), i say this is unusual, especially since, according to the last census, there must be less than 0.2 of the population fitting into that category (there isn't a category for japanese people, so the nearest category "Chinese or other ethnic group: Other ethnic group" has only 28 people in it for stretford) and you seem to know pretty much every one of those people - again, just an observation.

All the Japanese people i know are not all from Stretford, they're from all over Manchester. There's only Kassie i know from Stretford itself. There has only been a few Japanese people employed by me at KJC, being Koruri, Kassie, and her friend Rinoa. Rinoa and Kassie weren't full timers, and just helped out occasionally.

i also find it strange that you appear to live in the same house as greg - if you have a wife, why would greg be living with you? i have a partner and as much as i like my friends, i'm not sure i would want to share a house with them. the whole situation is deeply contradictory.

I don't live in the same house as Greg. I stayed with him for 6 months whilst Kassie and I had a bit of time away from each other, because of what happened, we had rows, and things nearly got out of hand. I moved back to Stretford nearly 2 months ago. I stayed with him from June 2006 to December 2006.

I hope this has answered your curiousness Mr Lobster.

Just a note of caution to readers of this thread:

It would be prudent, in my opinion, to consider all material posted by the on-line persona, called "Tidus", to be fictitious unless verified by "hardcopy" material. It is also quite evident that the persona, "Tidus", normally alternates between a sympathetic character and a vicious character. Tidus has apparently taken responsibility for attacking the SillyDog server SillyDog701 server was attacked by Tidus/KJC.

An example of on-line pretension is related (by me) in the paragraph below"

I have seen one person post (not here at SillyDog) as a real-life female person, while, he, in fact was a male. This person, after tiring of his fictitious female past, decided to kill off the fictitious female character, along with a supposed sister to the female character, by means of a fatal car accident. This was stretched out over a period of days, and ended with the supposed deaths of the two sisters. This story was reported by the man who had pretended to be this female, but who now took the role of the female's husband. To get more sympathy he reported that he was now left alone to raise two twin babies. This story was so effective that people began to spontaneously send in funds to help out this poor family. Needless to say, this fiction did not last long and ended in quite a disaster for this man and his standing in his on-line community of friends.

Well, profman, that is just stupid, and sick. I would not pose as a fictitious character, then kill them off. I am not fictitious, as Mandrake has dug up.

Have YOU actually got EVIDENCE to back this claim up? The only reason (and i mean the ONLY reason) i have told you all about the death of my daughter, is so you may understand why i've made the mistakes i have recently.

Some people think the internet is totally anonymous, which it isn't, i know that, and have done for some time. Even Greg will back my story up, he's my best friend, and is my employee/business partner.
