Ok, ignore my last post about adding the -dev parameter to steam to get
offline mode working. Apparently, that doesn't do anything. The real reason
I managed to get steam working in offline mode was because I clicked on
"Don't save account information on this computer".

Note, in order to click on this option, you actually have to be logged onto
steam.. so you must log onto steam atleast once in order to get offline mode
working. Log onto it , go to settings, and check mark that option to not
save account info. Log off steam, unplug your internet, and then log back on
and this time when you select offline mode, it won't complain about "not
being able to connect to the steam network"

Oh, and once you log back into steam in offline mode, you can un-check that
option to not save acccount info. on this computer. Once you get offline
mode working once, it will work fine anytime afterwards (regardless of that
option being check marked or not).

Oh, and I tested this on two of my laptops, so I'm pretty confident that
this procedure works.
