A lightly loaded E450 in a reasonable shipping container weighs in at
about 180lb.  I've shipped enough of them to know.  :)

My guess is that fully loaded with disk and powersupplies, they're at the
225-235lb mark.  One of the problems with the 450 is that there are really
no good places to grab it, so you have to go for the bottom and heave.
The plastics are _flimsy_.
