I plan to check this as my "third bag" on my AA flights to Melbourne.
You can buy empty computer cases in Melbourne. And possibly from the same factory in China as yours was made. I would be filling the inside with foam or packing. Your case will have other heavy bags on top of it. Baggage handlers are not very careful with items.

Check very carefully your baggage allowance. Are you on QF94 (A380) LAX-MEL ?
