Aaron, I've run into this same problem on Windows. You are correct, cloned installs will have identical product keys. MAC address is a possibility, but if the person uses a dock or external ethernet adapter then it might not be available when they are working mobile.
The only sure way to have a unique identifier is to create one yourself and store it somewhere buried in the Windows registry. Good luck. -bill k On Apr 16, 2012, at 4:54 AM, Aaron Andrew Hunt wrote: > On Apr 16, 2012, at 6:00 AM, [email protected] > wrote: >> I would use MacSerialNumber on Mac and WinProductKey on Windows. >> >> Greetings >> Christian > > > For MacSerialNumber, I thought not all Macs can be guaranteed to have this? > That's why I was using the UUID. > > For WinProductKey, do cloned installations have unique values for this?
