Leave alone that you can't unmount a machine from a rack with just a
phillips screw driver.I hear some guys even remove CRW/DVD's from their
machines not a bad Idea(KNOPPIX lamed ) but they forget one of the
backdoors "a keyboard + Monitor " move with them too :-D

If the BIOS is not password protected, the attacker doesn't even need
a screwdriver. He or she can hack into a Windows- or Linux-based
computer by using only two items: a KNOPPIX CD and a USB key. KNOPPIX
is a Linux distribution that is available for free at knoppix.com and
that can be burned onto a single CD. The attacker can boot KNOPPIX
from the CD and then copy everything from the hard drive to the USB
key. (If the BIOS has been set to disallow booting from the CD drive,
the attacker needs only one additional item: a KNOPPIX boot floppy
disk, which is available from the same site as the KNOPPIX CD...)
