Hey everyone, I thought I was speaking English- the topic was the format of 
man pages/ info pages/ etc. If you have another connected PC, you have access 
to all the information in the world. A laptop can hold entire libraries, for 
those situations where there is no Internet access. On my work notebook I 
have all the technical documentation I can collect, and I'm always adding 
more.

These 'desert island' scenarios are unrealistic.
