Can I download software without installing it first?

[hackb0y294]

Is there a way to download software but not install it? I want to download the software on one computer that has internet access and install it on others that don't, but I don't want the software on the internet computer. I would like to be able to browse a repository like you can with the Package Manager, if possible. Any suggestions?

The command:

sudo apt-get install -d somepackage
should download packages (to /var/cache/apt/archives) without actually installing any of them.
Also look into aptoncd, which puts packages onto a disc for you.
