BTW, I just gave it a try under 10.1 and I got the same error than Sean :-(

crippleware n.: 1. [common] Software that has some important functionality
deliberately removed, so as to entice potential users to pay for a working
version. 2. [Cambridge] Variety of guiltware that exhorts you to donate to
some charity (compare careware, nagware). 3. Hardware deliberately crippled,
which can be upgraded to a more expensive model by a trivial change (e.g.,
cutting a jumper). An excellent example of crippleware (sense 3) is Intel's
486SX chip, which is a standard 486DX chip with the co-processor diked out
(in some early versions it was present but disabled). To upgrade, you buy a
complete 486DX chip with working co-processor (its identity thinly veiled by
a different pinout) and plug it into the board's expansion socket. It then
disables the SX, which becomes a fancy power sink. Don't you love Intel?
