There's a company out of Boulder, Colorado named DATA Security Insurance
which will insure your computer and software reasonably.  Their literature
says that they offer more protection than Safeware, but then it is *their*
literature.  Their premiums run in the range of $35/yr for $2000 worth of
coverage up to $300/yr for $50000 worth of coverage.  Their phone number
is 1-800-822-0901.
