If you can pack it well enough, I'd say Fedex/UPS is the way to go. It may not be as fast as hauling it on the airplane with you, but baggage handlers at airports are used to throwing around suitcases of clothes that don't care about getting mauled a little - your computer may not feel the same way.

A friend of mine had his computer pretty much destroyed when he checked it as baggage on a flight. First, it rained and the water got all over the box & the computer itself, then the box got pretty much demolished by being thrown onto the baggage train (from what we could tell, at least - the sturdy cardboard box was very dented on one side, as was the computer inside).
