MAC address of a Mac?
Discussion
Been given a MacBook Pro at work (as well as my Dell Windows workhorse 
).
But I'm a Mac numpty (need to learn - I'll be demoing our software on it soon!). I am mostly non-conversant in Unix also which does not help.
1st question of many I'm sure - how do I find out the bugger's MAC address so I can add it in to my MAC filtering on my router?!

This will load the System Profiler from the Utilities folder. There's a network section that'll display the Mac addresses.
Edited to say there's also a useful Network Utility in the Utilities folder

Alternatively if you want to look like the 31337 h4x0rs who use Macs cos they are neat unix machines, fire up a terminal window and run ifconfig -a
Remember that your MBP has lots of network interfaces - make sure you're looking at the right one (built in wired ethernet is normally en0)
