Same problem here except in the opposite direction.  It's (or I'm) on the
wrong side of the Irish Sea :-(

That Alphaserver GS60e is very tempting although there may be problems
getting it around corners in the house and then there is the power issue.

There is a three phase distribution transformer in my back yard but only a
single phase supply to the house.  Even if the power supply doesn't care if
the three phases are wired together to a single phase supply, it looks like
the starting surge would be a little bit on the high side anyway :-(
