It is not MAC; it is Mac. MAC is an acronym for Machine Access Code, an address assigned to devices on a network. Mac is short for Macintosh, Apple's most popular line of computers, and is an Apple trademark.

Every Mac has a MAC address.

At least it's the correct answer. :P Things like "I want to install Adobe Photoshop on my MAC" just don't make any sense whatsoever when "MAC" is the network card's unique address.

Mr. Me: My MacBook has two MAC addresses: WiFi and Ethernet.
