First a report from Pierre:
When I use my MacBook Pro over couple of hours, it suddenly refuses to launch any new application, mentioning an Error 10810.
This is a quite well described error code in numerous forum, but many users can not find a fix, despite rebooting the notebook.
some users have identified Airport as being the potential factor leading to this problem. By entering ps -ef into the Terminal, it shows that multiple processes are launched and saturate the CPU, putting the CPU on its knees by reaching the maximal process allowed.
