Tim Cooper (whom I had the pleasure to meet in Steubenville this summer) and Jerry Suelzer have designed a terrific database on one CD, for Catholics (see their website). It has virtually every source a Catholic apologist or student could need or want, and super-convenient cross-referencing and search capabilities. Here is some of what it includes:
