It's a real bummer, too. Especially when the machine you need the SN of is
sitting in a remote and unmanned POP. In IRIX on a SGI, it's as simple as
the amsysinfo command. With Sun, you have to psysically find it. I find
this omission kinda hard to believe.

But such is life. I'm sure Sun has/is looking at ways to make the unit's
SN available from the command prompt.
