Does Atmel not have an Ethernet vendor allocation? Ideally, a unique MAC would be included on a sticker on each board. This would provide something for each developer to use. I'm not crazy about having a "default" address for reasons already mentioned. What about a randomly generated MAC address should there not be one already set in flash? This would provide for Ulf's no touch initial setup and still provide for a mostly non-dup solution?
