System Report will display the system's Hardware UUID in the format 01234567-89ab-cdef-0123-456789abcdef. Using the shell we can retrieve the same UUID:

ioreg -rd1 -c IOPlatformExpertDevice | grep -E '(UUID)'

Is it possible to get this UUID in Python without resorting to executing a shell command?
