Probably shelf stable food, firearms, hard currency like gold and silver. For information the books I already have (Classic literature, engineering references, cook books). Honestly, computers would be the last thing I care about even though it’s both my hobby and my career.

I say this because the Internet is so integral to our current society and way of life that it would be like losing access to electricity. Most young people have never lived in a world without Internet access. Electronic payments, logistics, food distribution, etc would all stop functioning. Society is far more fragile than anyone wants to admit and people would panic.
