Shipping a homebuilt system.

After seeing the pic over at HardOCP Broken MB @HardOCP I am wondering how you ship a homebuilt pc?

I want to build an athlon based pc for my kid at school. but I am really worried that the HS will shift or just plain come off. After seeing that pic, I now have to worry about the whole dang thing coming off.

So with the big heavy HS's needed for Athlons, how in the heck do you get them stay on when you ship them?
 
You could put thick foam or card board over the heatsink fan all the way to the side cover so there is a little bit of presure on the heatsink fan, and get your son to take the cover off and take the foam or card board out. Or you could take the heatsink fan off and get your son to put it back on.

Are homebuilt PC's generally less durable than Dell's and Compaq's?
