apt-get saving .deb files

[thoms]

Hi, I've been using Ubuntu for a while now so am used to the apt-get system. I have a new non internet enabled/connected PC that I'm only planning on updating every new release (easy enough). The problem is that I want to install some specific non-standard programs (e.g Mplayer). Obviously I'll have to download the .deb files on another machine and move them across but is there any way to do this using apt-get (saving the files to disk rather than installing) without having to trawl through the repositories in a web bowser?

Thanks -- Thom
