Everyone is safe outside even your pets and you only have time to save one item from your house, what item would that be?

If for some strange reason all my consoles and games were in one box I would grab that. I can get music easily but old consoles and games can be hard to find.

The cardboard box in my back room carrying photo albums. House insurance can't compensate for lost photos and memories.

I don't think that counts as an item. It would be outside with the rest of your family.

Same here. I've got too much money invested in this thing in terms of hardware and software to NOT save it.

I dunno, I dont think the firefighters would be alright if I ran into a burning apartment...Also, I think water damage would be a bigger issue than fire damage...Its like a freaking typhoon when the sprinklers go off...Water...EVERYWHERE....(They went off in a hallway on another floor due to a pipe rupture, and there was water pouring from underneath the door...)

I can't think of anything too important.

Maybe my projector.

Not my PC-it'd give me an excuse to get a new one :D. One of my external hardrives, so that I would have all of my data still with me.

I have this blue duffel bag filled with old love letters, birthday cards, pictures, report cards as early as elementary school, and other things I've collected in the past, so I'll probably save that bag for sentimental reasons.

Living in San Diego, I unfortunately had to experience this very issue first hand a year ago. :? With that, the first thing I thought to take were my guns. Most everything else can be replaced but if those get "lost" I would be in serious trouble.

I'd probably try and drag out the bookshelf that I keep my books and CDs on.

I'm not sure how exactly it would work, but I'd make it happen.

I'd probably grab my pc and quickly snap offf my 360's hard drive and run for it. In a way I'd want to save the photo albums downstairs though. Tough choice.

A fireproof outfit, assuming I had one. Either that or a security system, so I could get backup faster.

Tough choice between my laptop and my desktop....but I think I'd go for the laptop since it's newer and easier to grab. Both of my computers have pretty much the same files on them.

Can't believe most of these answers. Your PC people? Ipod? Are you serious? How about like old childhood tapes, photos of you younger, or your kids younger. How about stories and work you've written- those types of sentimental and permenant items? All your tech stuff is replaceable- unless you want to get your hard drive because it has all your old photos and tapes and stuff, then I'd understand. But your Zune/Ipod!?
