Likely, it'll use 110.  It weighs 70# empty, and can weigh almost 140#
fully loaded with disks and cards and that mammoth power supply.  It's
been a while since I lugged one around, but it's not immovable.

Take it.  It's a nice Sun box.  But it does eat a decent amount of
current, and does shed a decent bit of heat.  But, you can toss 8
SuperSPARCs in it.
