I also see the benefits of hacking into someone's home computer. Many people do not leave their work 'at work' when they leave the office. Many business owners may have information on their home computers. Do you think that the owner of a huge corporation does not have a computer in their home office? And do you think that they have had one of their security people come over to make sure it is secure? Chances are, they have not.

[my 2 cents]
