Yes. You can run a strap across the top. I would cover it with a blanket  
and some foam. It would be a good idea to check that the cabinet floor is in  
good shape. otherwise it could cave in.

Thanks for the advice.

One more question: Is the top strong enough  to allow the 'tron to be 
strapped (as gentle yet secure as possible) to a  pallet? If not, how does one 
secure it to said  pallet?

Thanks,
Chris
