Upgrading to stable really requires a 'Net connection for most practical
purposes. However, you could upgrade your machines to 4.3-RELEASE (or
just wait a week or so for 4.4-RELEASE). You could then buy the CD or
download the CD disk-image and burn a CD - which you could use to upgrade
your machines.
Cheers.
