This may seem like a stupid question but someone I know just had their house burn to the ground. Luckily everyone and all the pets got out safe, they lost almost everything else.

My friends wife was the only one awake at the time and the only one that thought to save anything other than the 5 cats, 3 dogs and 2 ferrets. What she thought to save was her jewelry, some of it had been passed down from her great great grandmother. They literally had nothing except the cloths on their backs, which wasn't much, they were all in bed.

So, I would save my laptop, its the only sentimental thing I own that I don't wear and I could at least still make a living.
