    Abstract: A housing or shroud for computers. In the preferred embodiment, the shroud is designed to fit over tower style CPUs. The shroud fits over the face of the CPU and has a hinged door that can be locked in a closed position. In this position, the shroud protects the face of the CPU from dirt, dust and liquids. Moreover, the shroud is made of high strength plastic components. Thus, the CPU is protected by a strong housing. Finally, the shroud can be used with security cables that are secured to the CPU. Once secured, the shroud cannot be removed and a thief is prevented from gaining access to the computer or any disks that may be installed in the CPU.
