By the way, when having physical access to an Apple running MacOS X everything's so easy. All you need is inserting the MacOS X setup CD and welcome to wonderland. Even booting into single-user mode if helpful much often. Thanks to Apple.
Open Firmware built into the Macintosh now permits control of booting from CD. Can be password protected without third party software. Also I echo the comments regarding physical security for any box--if an intruder has physical access you're hosed regardless of OS.
