You should be seriously concerned. I couldn't find the article, but I remember reading a story about an IBM developer who did something as little as running a proof of concept of his side project on one of their servers. He eventually created his own company and in the end they sued him and got everything.

Lawyers, IP law, these are dangerous areas and you want to steer clear. In fact if you have written any code on your company computer, delete it and re-write it from scratch once you get your new laptop.
