I looked at the Anchor pad technology at an industrial show
recently.  It looks very useful in any insecure situation.

The price for securing a PC (about $270) is for the PC box plus CRT.
You can secure the PC box alone for about $125.

The key to the installation is a pad which glues to the surface
of your choice.  The vendor can remove this pad for you (at a charge)
but you (and your thieves) probably cannot.  The hardware is bolted
securely to the pad, and you can easily remove the bolt with an
unusual personalized key.

If I had to stay several weeks in a hospital, I would use a system like
this to keep hardware in my hospital room, if I could otherwise work
this out with the hospital.  I'd probably have to buy the hospital
table that the machine was attached to (probably cheaper than paying
to have the pad removed afterwards).
