I really like how easy it is to set up an ad-hoc network using Mac OS X. If the government shuts off the internet Apple computers would probably be foremost in the creation of a private ad-hoc internet.

What you would really need to do is create a mesh network, where each host relays messages to other hosts within range. This way, you can communicate with hosts that aren't within direct range of your wireless radio.
