It may not be an adversity for looking things up using a web-browser, but rather the need to access documentation offline. Whether on an airplane or simply away from a wifi/landline connection, there are plenty of times I'm coding offline (another reason I'm happy to have DVCS tools).
This is one area where Windows users seems to have an advantage. The standard installer includes the doc set as a Windows help file. I often keep that open in one window while programming in others. I only later discovered that this was a copy of the online docs ;-), which I only use to check the in-development version before submitting a doc bug.
