I'm can't start an out of the box instance of RedHat Fuse

Question

On two different computers, I cannot get RedHat Fuse 6.1 to start. I'm new to the intricacies of OSGi and Fuse, so the following doesn't make sense to me. However, I'm told this product should work out of the box, which is what I tried to do.

The following is a console redirect for what I'm getting. The log file is even shorter.

Please wait while JBoss Fuse is loading...
