That is what I am hoping to do.  There is a NVRAM (8-pin X2444) device 
on the motherboard that holds (I suspect) the serial number.

However only one of my other 9100s are working, so have to service these 
to see if the serial number is tucked away there...

I did this way back in 2002 (find two of them here 
/Fluke/9100A/9100Base/9100 EEPROM copies.zip) but got busy with other 
projects and never finished the job...

10 years isn't too bad, is it?
