    Ah i got it from a company i was doing work for a few years back they didnt mind as long as i destroyed the hard drive, ya its a standard ATX motherboard mountings actually everything is pretty much standard parts it even came with a fibre nic, and ya it weighs a lot i reckon a sledge hammer would take a while to get into it, only problem i see is the interfaces eg. usb and the like but i might make up a new back plate to change them to standard connections

    yeah it looks pretty solid...... maybe replacing the sidepanels with acrylic or something drastic like that? or sand parts and hit it a few times with a mallet make it look like its been tried to get into? just throwing ideas out here ha
