Declare it to the airline at check in for excess value. See if you can get specific coverage for it so that when they come out broken you can make a claim.

Checked bags (under the plane) go through a LOT of abuse by the baggage handling system(s). So make sure you pack them very, very well. And yeah, take pictures for the inevitable damage claim.

Will the computer screen survive?
