In the past week both Remair and Andrew have made reference to a HD serial
number? I have never heard of such a thing and thought that between the
various IDE and SCSI interfaces that such a thing was absolutely
impossible. It is certainly possible to use your ethernet hardware
address for hardware licensing but this will obviously not work in this
circumstance. One can also dream about using the serial number from an
Intel P3/P4 chip but this leaves all of the AMD and other CPU users out in
the dark. Can someone please post a link that describes an interface to
the 'hard drive' serial number?

Many thanks,
Randall
