OK I am in a pickle... I have a computer that I will be using for a little while without internet access. I happened to buy a new piece of hardware for that computer whose manual is online only. I need to save the whole manual so I can transfer it to the other computer without internet. How would I go about doing this without saving each individual website? I can obviously do the first one, but I need to be able to see several links deep into that manual. How would you do it?

Look for site ripper software. I haven't used any in a while, so I can't recommend anything, but that's what you're looking for.

Actually I think I found one, it's called Teleport or something. Trying it right now.
