Eric,

Businesses have been begging for CPU ID features to help with inventory

The network adapter card in the computer has a unique identifier. Each computer in a network is easily identifiable, today.

Anyway, they can buy a second computer with the cost savings from not buying a PIII. Business buyers are slow to change, but ultimately they are not stupid. It took a while to get away from IBM mainframes after all.
