Is there any way to get to/look at the iNodes on the computer?

What do you mean? An inode is a file. Or more specifically, the block that describes the file's size, location, mode, and access timestamps.

man ls. there's an option to look at inode of files.
Also check man page for GNU find command. hint: -inum, printf format.

well, good point, ls -l can list all the information written in an inode ...
but what exactly do you want to see in an inode? or do you want to estimate how much disk is used by them?
