I made a box around mine to take it from an annoying pole to a slightly larger and more annoying drywalled in pole. Then I used it as an excuse to put a conduit across the ceiling at the same place for various media wiring. Thinking back, that was really a waste of time when you figure that most basement ceilings are going to be at least partially drop ceiling.
Anyway I don't know how expensive actually moving one is, but you should just chrome the hell out of it.
Embrace the pole.
