I'd go for the rack option with the added ventilation bonus. You could
always make a big humongous BBC case out of carbon fibre!!! Might look a bit
Alice in Wonderland, but pretty cool all the same.

Worth saying that I can rescue the rest (other than the Master that Dave 
wants) and keep them at the museum if they can all come to Cambridge too 
(and are freebies :) I'd rather save them from the tip (but if anyone 
else wants to grab them before then, no worries)

Caveat being that I'm not back in the UK for another four weeks, so I 
couldn't grab them from Cambridge until then! (so it also depends on how 
soon 'soon' is!)

Still, just a thought anyway.

I still need 16 BBC B boards for the ol' image wall project anyway, so 
fixable machines with knackered cases (and/or duff PSUs) are actually a 
bonus as the boards will likely all get stuffed into a rack... (although 
a tower of 16 cased BBCs might look rather cool)

cheers
