Fellow geeks and geekettes:

While, on a box where the model and serial number are programmatically readable, accessing a motherboard UUID (as on a WinDoze or Linux server) seems kind of pointless,

Is there a hardware UUID on an IBM Midrange box, that corresponds to the motherboard UUID on a WinDoze or Linux box? And if so, is it programmatically readable?
