Really? You are doomed because you don't have some extra configuration niceties? Basic vim editing is not enough?
Then I have to ask: what exactly are you doing in that other computer?
If it's just some temporary sysadmin stuff and the like, then you surely can get by with the basic vim functionality.
Now, If you're gonna be using that other computer for a longer period, then why not just add your .vimrc there? With github, bitbucket, dropbox et al you can have your configuration pushed to the other computer in seconds.
I also find that with everybody having laptops these days, the need to use some "other computer" is much less frequent.
