Gap Loses 800K Worth of Applicant Data

A laptop was stolen that contained application data of about 800,000 people.

Why would gap, who employs about 152,000 people worldwide, have a single machine with nearly a million people who aren't even employed there on file? It seems odd, but with all the massive data thefts we've seen the past three years it is hardly surprising.
