It's about twice the size of the V480 I acquired from Dave a while back (same machine, twice the CPUs and drive space, etc.).  Respect your back, get some help moving it on stairs; flip it over onto a towel/flattened box and slide it up/down the stairs as needed.

I'll be glad to help you get it up/running if you get it, since it's basically the same machine as the V480, just twice the resources.

If the V480 is any indication, this will probably noticeably warm your basement by a few degrees when it's on.  Great machine, though.
