I think you are wrong here. A lot of hackers are kick-oriented. They want
to get a kick out of hacking, or even need to get a kick out of it. Hacking
a less secure machine is not an option there. Problem with these hackers is,
there is no real way to stop them, because if there is a small way in, they
will most probably find it.
