The resilience of the plastic components of a Unix workstation vary
inversely with respect to the system's initial sticker price.  A U30 may
require a freight carrier to damage it, but an E450 can lose its
operator panel's door through general handling, and an SGI's platics can
crack if you'll just look at them sternly.
