find it, I'll jump on my mac and email it to you.

This is another thing I hate, when companies use software checks to enforce
hardware monopolies. That's SOOOO stupid. Any hardware could do, but the
O/S makes sure it's a Genuine XXYZ-Corp. device and barfs if it's not.

Buying new gear for this is out of the question.
