Well not exactly. They do, but it's assigned by Apple and not normally disclosed to the public. It's the machine's model number, held internally in the firmware and available to software. Mac OS X normally just identifies a machine as a MacBook or whatever, but the System Information app (accessed by hitting the "more info..." button in "About this Mac" does disclose the model number. -- Liam Proven • Profile: http://www.linkedin.com/in/liamproven Email: lpro...@cix.co.uk • GMail/GoogleTalk/Orkut: lpro...@gmail.com Tel: +44 20-8685-0498 • Cell: +44 7939-087884 • Fax: + 44 870-9151419 AOL/AIM/iChat/Yahoo/Skype: liamproven • LiveJournal/Twitter: lproven MSN: lpro...@hotmail.com • ICQ: 73187508 -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UKTeam/
