There are 492,714 files on my PowerBook. It would take some time to go through them. Besides, it would be trivially simple to conceal data - by using an encrypted filesystem for example - which would make it impossible for someone casually poking around for half an hour to find what they were looking for. Seems like a pointless exercise to me.
