I recently went for a big trip to the Salt Lake Family History Library. My computer crashed right after I arrived. My family emailed my Legacy data as GedCom files, which I downloaded to a flash drive. Then, I read then with the available GenViewer software on the local computers.
You can buy GenViewer for your own computer. It's a neat little companion to Legacy, allowing sorts by birth date, marriage date, etc. as well as the usual surname and first name sorts. I believe GenViewer Lite is free. There is a user group to answer questions.
