It covers all parts in the system you purchase (laptop, desktop, monitor, etc.). Homeowner's insurance (or renter's insurance) is as you say to cover against accidents and theft. It can sometimes also cover against lightning damage (assuming such damage can be visibly proven) or even water damage. But be aware that most of these policies cover only the replacement value of the equipment you originally purchased. It won't buy you a new computer, it will pay enough for you to purchase an identical used model (based upon average resale value). Just because you have it covered for the purchase price, don't expect a full payout. For that reason, you should re-evaluate any extra coverage you have just on the computer each year.
