I also thank Patrick for the reminder, and add that many of the longer
texts at CCEL are available for free download in a variety of file formats.
One part of the site which I suspect many on the list might particularly
appreciate are the Ante-Nicene and Post Nicene Christian Libraries:
<http://www.ccel.org/fathers2/>
I prefer real books, but 38 fairly large volumes do take up a bit of space
(not to mention the cost for those who haven't already sprung for them);
the ability to do electronic searching is quite a bonus as well.
CCEL also offers a zipped version of Schaff's _History of the Christian
Church_:
<http://www.ccel.org/s/schaff/history/About.htm> (download link is at the
bottom of the page)
For those not wanting to clutter (if I may use the term) their hard drive
with these, they also sell a CD-ROM version for a nominal price; currently
it's $29, but they report a new edition is due next month.
Especially if you haven't visited in a while, take a look at their
"Classics" page:
<http://www.ccel.org/index/classics.html>
I noticed they recently added Richard Rolle's _Incendium Amoris_ in Latin,
to offer just one exemplary reason to look over the list of available
titles.
If only Brepols would follow suit ...
