I've been using AptOnCD for a few months now, and I must say that it did
help me with the packages I want installed on a non-internet-connected
PC. I basically use Synaptic and enable the option to just download the
packages and not install it, it'll include other packages it's dependent
on.

Here's a good article from Linux.com regarding AptOnCD and Apt-Mirror:
