Yes, but I have normally seen only spoofed MAC's. One or more of the Microsoft Windows systems allows you to easily spoof them. > And if I could, is there a 'private' range for MACs that > could be used if I did set it to something else?

But you can certainly try filling the first three pairs "ff:ff:ff:" I don't think that represents a vendor or not but it gives your MAC addresses some consistency.
