Easier than that, linux support mac address change with the ifconfig command you can specify the mac address you want, it does't work with all card but must recent network card i tried was working fine.
Did you test MAC adress change with ifconfig with the card that doesn not support MAC changing? I mean that in my opinion this should work with any card working with linux. But I had no chance to play with cards that have no hardware ability to change their MACs. Does ifconfig really can't change MAC in this case? BTW: with M$ windows 2000 you may easily change your MAC via usua GUI in network iface properties, even w/o rebooting AFAIR.
Btw having a "secure" network card that don't allow mac address change is no logic cause normally you want not to prevent attack from yourself but from other, and their is no way to ensure that the attacker network card will be secure...
