Hello,

You may wish to check out the techniques found at:

http://www.securemac.com/openfirmwarepasswordprotection.php

OpenFirmware is similar to BIOS that you find on intel hardware. It is a bootup password that will prevent all I/O activities until the password challenge is satisfied. The webpage describes some adanced work, so if you are not comfortable doing this on your own, you best take it to an Apple Dealer and have them do it.
