Way Back When, I think that IEEE was the party that handed out prefixes
to be used as MAC addresses. I know several people have compiled lists
at one time or another.
There's a neat little app for palm OS handhelds called Ethertools*, that
had a reasonably comprehensive list of the well-known ones.
(*Of course similarly formatted MAC addresses are present on other
multi-access mediums as well. I recall pulling out a lot of hair
figuring out how 3Com ended up with what looked like two MAC's on every
token-ring card. Turned out to be the same address, but token ring was
small-endian vs. big-endian. Or vice versa.)
