Zusammenfassung:A computer includes receptacles for receiving electric cables of peripheral equipment. A gate can be mounted to the housing to extend across the cables and form a gap small enough to prohibit the cable plugs from being separated from the housing. The gate can be locked to the housing by a cable anchoring device which also anchors the housing to a stationary structure. Hence, the computer housing is anchored, and the peripheral equipment is locked to the anchored housing.
