The classic I recall was on Telebit Trailblazers. The production line was supposed to auto-increment the MAC address being burned into the board's ROM. But it stuck; all got the same MAC. This was not noticed until some outlier had two Trailblazers on the same LAN segment, and obviously, issues arose.
