Hi, 

What you could consider is asking a few of the major internet exchanges if 
they'd be so kind to send you a list of MAC addresses seen on their LANs. Based 
on the MAC you can determine the manufacturer. If you have three or four big 
ones, you have a decent sample size as most larger networks are on multiple 
IXes anyway. 

If you do compile a list, I'm sure this list would be interested in the results 
:) 

Thanks, 

Sabri
