Actually, my colleague that discovered this problem wondered about the
same thing - 2560 is 0x0A00, which - if you change the byte order
(big/little endian issue) - is 0x000A, AKA 10. Is it just a
coincidence (or not) that the message is "found 2560, support 10"??

I hope the windows version isn't big endian and the mac version little
endian (or vice-versa)...
