Of course there is a bit more information that can be used here - the factory mac address will be somewhat predictable, if we know the board we're flashing. Only the last 6 of the 12 bytes of the mac address are an unknown. In my case, the 00:16:e6 is Gigabyte's vendor id, unsurprisingly (http://www.coffer.com/mac_find/?string=00%3A16%3Ae6).
