Use the 'system_profiler' command. Here's one way to do it:
$ /usr/sbin/system_profiler -detailLevel 2 | grep 'Serial Number:'
Serial Number: XB4091C1QES
Serial Number: DBDL919610WL
Serial Number: 3JS2XGS7
$
Note a couple of things though:
* this command does a full system scan, so it's pretty slow
You can just tell system_profiler to return a particular section and
speed it up.
"system_profiler SPHardwareDataType"
Will give you just the hardware section.
"ystem_profiler -listDataTypes"
Will show you all the possible data types.
