if we want this, we need to drive to sacramento with a box truck or 
flatbed truck, and rent a forklift at that end to get it into the truck.

I called the person who posted the ad, and he said the machine weighs
6,500 lbs according to manufacturer (including granite slab and computer)
its dimensions are approximately 6 x 6.5 foot, 5 foot high

if you want to bottomline getting this thing, first measure the elevator 
width to see if it will even fit.  I don't think it will.  Then get your 
head checked for even thinking about such things.

but hey - free!  maybe we should get it anyway even though it won't fit in 
our elevator?
