Thanks for sharing Brad. I hadn't really considered the data side of 
having things stolen. I've constantly turned down the encrypted home 
option on installs, as I didn't see the need for it (desktop machines, 
don't have a laptop). I've always been worried about a few things, 
performance impact, and loss of encryption key (as from memory, it's a 
proper 2 way encryption key, protected with a password).

But it's probably about time I did something for sensitive data, even if 
it's not for my >300Gb of photos and home videos.
