If I was able to get it for a period of time I could do that.  It's in 
pretty heavy use all the time and it usually stays with the user 24/7.  
Are there any other ways of getting the needed info with out 
disassembly and thus 'downing' the iBook?  Apple Profiler seemed to 
flop at this.  It is running 9.1.  Slowly getting everything to 9.2.2 
and X.

That number came from the Applecare phone call placed by the school.  
It seemed way out there to me.
