The 91 percent of computer owners who store data on their computers tend to keep digital pictures (71 percent); personal contact information (58 percent); work-related files and documents (43 percent); music or MP3 files (41 percent) and personal financial files or documents (41 percent); tasks and to-do lists (35 percent); movies and video (20 percent); and other data (14 percent). Nine percent of computer users said they don't store personal data on their computer.
