I have a Compaq desktop machine (p2 300 I think) which has a solenoid  
in the chassis.  You can set it to lock in the BIOS, and without the  
password (or some crafty BIOS hacking) you'd have to drill a hole in  
the case to ever get it open again.

I never activated it, because if the BIOS ever crapped out I'd be  
completely up the creek.  And yes, I have had to open the box to  
reset the BIOS a couple of times.
