I'm almost certain that at least once in the past I successfully ran the
demo version of Virtuoso off the Educational Software Sampler CD-ROM.
Last night I tried to fire it up again with the following result; a
Virtuoso miniwindow appears at the bottom of the screen for a few moments
then disappears and that's it.  No menu appears at all.  The system is okay,
I can click on the Workspace etc.

Has anyone else experienced this behaviour?  Is the demo set up to somehow
only run once?

PS There were no grumbles on the console either.

From what I understand, they accidentally put a time-bombed copy on the
CD-ROM.  It has expired.
