Not to mention that if you're using the machine as a server, it would be a
wise idea to get a case that you can lock the case and the front.  This
way, someone can't get into the case, pull out the bios battery (resetting
the bios to the default settings.) or press the power button to shutdown
the machine.

Of course, it isn't very likely that someone will go to all that trouble
unless you've got some seriously confidential stuff on there.

Of course, servers should also preferably be kept in a room that only
required personnel have access to.
