This is my hugest complaint about using Google Docs. I seem to suffer
from lag a lot, despite having a high speed cable connection. Concerns
about losing work, losing control, losing access, etc.
I don't think I'd like it very much if didn't have the possibility of
working on code and text files while I was not connected to a network.
