Wow- that is some answer. Thank you Monte.

I was actually expecting something like "getSystemID" to be built into Revtalk, but...

You inspired me to make myself a script library.
Note this approach works 99% of the time, but can go wrong (or at least be very confusing) if the user has installed any devices which have an in-built MAC address (e.g. a USB Wifi card, perhaps to get better reach than the in-built wifi gets, he says from experience :-). This may be the MAC address reported first, giving an "ID" which can later change.

Monte's script looks at interface en0. Does your Wifi card register on that one?

On OS X it looks at en0, but on Windows it does a search for "Physical address", so it uses the first one it happens to find (which is not always the LAN cards).
