Virtual PC questions, hardware and MAC add

So I am running Vista at work now and we got a new piece of whiz-bang software that cost us lots of money and surprise, it doesn't support Vista and won't very soon :(
So, I decided to be clever and run it through the Microsoft Virtual PC. It works *yay* but now I am having an additional issue.

2 questions:

I use a 3DConnexion Space Navigator for this stuff and even with the drivers installed it won't recognize it. I'm not surprised since the virtual PC isn't directly connected to the device but is there a way to do this?

and:

The other question is the MAC address for the virtual network connector. Where does it generate from? Is it linked to the address of the physical one? Is it a randomly generated series of characters? Is it something I could potentially change if I wanted?? (which is what I'm hoping....)

Any help on either of these guys? Thanks!
