Getting your computer to support hebrew text

There are a variety of options available for supporting hebrew text typing on your computer. Instructions for how to hebrew enable your keyboard computer (i.e. add an extra input language) and interchange are here.
The hebrew keyboard layout is here . You can buy stickers for your keyboard from stationers and computer shops in Israel, Judaica shops in the diaspora or by international mail order from TES here.

Alternatively you can use mikledet.com to type in hebrew without having hebrew setup as an extra input language. See http://www.mikledet.com/

Digital libraries

There are perfectly good digital librariesatabases available already and these are available to everyone at the relatively low price of $20 a year (as compared to the cost of purchasing licenses for the software) by subscribing to spertus - a Chicago library which has online facilities. Bar Ilan's database software - the most scientifically accurate of all the digital libraries - is available there along with DBS master library and many more and it is well worth looking into. Free libraries are available too although their accuracy is not gauranteed and their breadth is limited. If you are interested then one relatively good site is snunit. There is also a wikimedia project for the sources of Jewish law.
