Certain commercial products come free with a Dataframe harddrive.  These
versions of such products will work ONLY when Dataframe is connected.
As such updates to these products are distributed freely (since the disk
acts as a hardware key somehow).  

I believe that SuperLaserSpool is one of these products (that is the reason for
the df at the end of the version (for DataFrame -) ).  This is why you 
could not get it to work.

If I am mistaken, would someone post correction? (preferably a DataFrame 
owner, since they would know what came with their drive).
