Guess what, your data isn't that important! Hackers want to break into servers which hold sensitive information What about wannabe hackers that are starting to learn the basics, would'nt they choose an easier target like, say, an old OS with documented security issues and a random PC on the net …

Thank you Swampfox, I loved the detailed narration. Those boombox speakers don't seem to be shielded, don't you worry about the diskettes right next to them?
