[quote] That's not Dorsal. A select few here know my own relationship with Dorsal and know his writing style. Mods can compare IP's of the old Dorsal and this one and see if they're the same because I know for a fact his IP hasn't changed since last he spoke. <hr></blockquote>
Sorrey but if youread the earlier posts of yesterday you will have read that all the old posts have been lost so I don't think we will ever know .
Perhapps the real Dorsal will just change his ID and if he has real credible info we will recognise it and respect it whatever he happens to call himself.
arg... what´s happening? a spanking new and great looking ai board, a brand new dorsal thread, and everybody talking bullcr*p about canada??!!!!??
however i´m glad to see all you guys back here. too bad it looks like all registrations got lost.... ah well. at least now it´s a fair game.... starting from scratch. SO LET IT BEGIN!!!!!
dorsal: feed us some info already
edit: first post, first typo. sheesh.

Whether or not his ip has changed I can not tell you. Whether or not he used a different machine to register, I can not tell you.
However, I do remember his posts, have read them as much as anyone, and am completely unable to tell from the 3 sentences above whether that is the self-same individual. Anyone who claims to be able to do so is blowing smoke. There. I said it.
That said, I hope he returns, if this is not simply a slip-up using the "Shift" key. Holy cow. Worrying about a capital letter? I suggest reserving judgement.
As distasteful as the truth is, that doesn't change the fact that it is Ontarians (particularly from Toronto) who get the least for their tax dollar (per capita.) We may suck up a lot of funds, but we also have a hell of a lot more people. The rest of Canada does a lot better in terms of resources per person.
If democracy were to be truly representative (and I don't think that it should) Ontario would have to have even more seats than it currently does.
I think he got burned pretty bad by the last Macworld. I'm pretty sure the real Dorsal was legit though. It's good because the machines he predicted will have had an extra 3-4 months of bug fixing(and maybe G5's instead). First revisions of hardware always have their kinks.
Why do Americans refer to Toronto as Toronto, Canada and not Toronto Ontario, or Toronto Ontario Canada?<hr></blockquote>
I dunno, but Ottawa trounced the Crapitals last night and I *loved* it. All 11 goals of it...bwahahaha! Jaaaaa-grrrrr. Jaaaaa-grrrrr. Minus 6 Jags...way to play both ends of the ice!

Good suggestion, Mandricard, and based on a perfectly reasonable analysis. However, I would think that Dorsal would have followed up with actual information instead of just bait. More than 48 hours have passed since his original post. Finally, I would think that somebody who had access to prototype Apple hardware would be grow un enough to sleep at night. A post at 04:43 am? That looks fishy to me. I seem to remember that the old Dorsal posted during daytime hours. Anybody have a better recollection?

Hence knowing "his" IP is the same as knowing the ip of Anonymizer.com

Take this how you will. I can't confirm or deny.

Geez, American kids can barely name the fifty states, and you want them to memorize Provinces?
