Generally, taking these large machines apart is the best solution.
Then you can handle the individual pieces yourself...

Ok, maybe some people with more experience lifting
classic
hardware can help me out here. I'm definitely going to get
that prime that was offered here recently.
It looks by the pictures to be about waist-high, but they
tell me it's about 600lbs. That sounds heavy to me. :)
Out of curiosity, is this normal? Deskside SGIs manage to
be much lighter, while being almost as large.
Admittedly, that includes a terminal, and a large (8U?)
terminal server. I've estimated that stuff at about
100 pounds generously (I think), which leaves 500 in the
machine.
My question is, does anyone know how many people it takes
to lift this comfortably?
