I spend a lot of time offline, and while normally I'm in the middle of some book or magazine for work, I've recently been reading through the MSDN Library documentation of Visual Studio 2010 Application Lifecycle Management (aka TFS 2010).
Unfortunately, this documentation doesn't seem to be included on either the Vs2010 nor the VsAlm2010 installation media anymore, and I can't find any downloads for it...does it simply not exist except in online form?
I'd find it hard to believe that the only way to get at this documentation would be to hit a website for every request. What am I missing?

Wow - I'm a little surprised. Even on the MSDN Subscriber download site, the MSDN library downloads only go up to 2007.
But, you can tell the VS 2010 installation to install the content locally.
Go to "Help|Manage Help Settings" and under "Choose online or local help" select "I want to use local help".
You can also use the Help Manager to install online help updates locally. This might get the specific docs you're looking for (TFS ALM) pulled down - I'm not sure, but might be worth a try.
