Folks, this makes no sense, you are being too polite :-). Isildur
has the means and the space and there are few people better prepared
to actually getting it to run. 3-phase is usually a minor issue.
Besides this thing is in PA and so it can stay there. Isildur didn't
ask for anyone bidding $200.01 just for fun. Let's try backing it
up if necessary against resellers, but I don't think a reseller would
go that high unless he's in the neighborhood.
