Case in point:
1. Two bottles of cheap wine (consume before lifting).
2. A few tables and chairs.
3. Drink the wine
4. Pretend you're muscular and strong, pound chest like tarzan
5. Bolt the slides on first
6. Move the tables and chairs near the rack, pull out the slides
7. Lift the (in this case VAX 8350) machine on the table, chairs or on a big
pile of manuals.
8. Take your time when bolting the slides to the computer, see #3.
9. For the really adventurous you can now get some beer and continue by
reconfiguring multinet.

I've been thinking of getting a rack winch like the one demonstrated in
the HP 7935 manual. Until that I'll continue breaking my back. Beats going
to the gym.
