Would you save your computer during a fire?

I'd be yelling to the firemen below "Catch my computer!" :)

What can I do to protect my PC from a house fire?

I'm assuming you only care about the data, in which case pay for a
cheap web server ($7/month can get you 1500GB (1.5TB) of space) and
use automated FTP backup software (like Cobian Backup).
Then simply jump out the window and let the insurance pay for an
upgrade.
