Hitachi mill -- anybody?

Hi everyone. Dunno if this is the right place for this, but I couldn't see anywhere else.

This bad boy came up on my local CL for $2k plus $500 to move it (pics below).

What's the likelihood it could be put to use in a home shop? I'm guessing the power requirements might make it a non-starter, and weight could be another issue. Sure looks good and rigid, which is why I'm even interested. What would be the spindle taper? Any comments (maybe, 'run away, fast'?) welcome.

--thanks
Dave
