Barry,

It's supposed to change but it really depends on what the CE does.  He has
to run an offline utility called SS_CONFIG to change it when he installs
the hardware.  Additionally, many software vendors also use the CPU NAME
string which will definitely change.  You should be sure to call all of
your third-party vendors to let them know about the pending change.  Many
of the vendors (Cognos, Vesoft etc.) will allow you to keep running in a
demo mode for x number of days.

BTW, did you know that SUSAN stands for System Unique Serially Assigned
Number?
