A cabinet for personal computer, workstation or computer terminal components including separate monitor and keyboard includes a station for secure and accessible placement of a keyboard, a monitor enclosure permitting viewing of a monitor, and a secure enclosure for a central processing unit with openings for ventilation. The cabinet includes a supporting surface, a restraining member fixed to the surface, having an upright portion and a horizontal portion extending generally rearward from the upright portion to define a space below the horizontal portion and on the surface, the space being adapted to receive the forward edge of a conventional personal computer keyboard, blocking fixed to the surface a selected distance rearward of the restraining member; a horizontal member a selected distance upward from the supporting surface, the selected distance being greater than the height of the rear portion of a conventional personal computer keyboard, and forward of said blocking, whereby movement of the keyboard rearward over the blocking is prevented; and two vertical members so positioned relative to the horizontal member and the surface to prevent lateral movement of a keyboard positioned with a rear portion between the horizontal member and the surface.
