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?
