LAW-LIBbers seeking a cheap CD-ROM collection of U.S. Supreme
Court decisions might want to look into a product called U.S.
SUPREME COURT OPINIONS, published by a company called New Ray
Software and available for $39.95 through CD-ROM Warehouse, in
Lakewood, New Jersey (tel. 800-237-6623). Here's the product
description from the catalog, which arrived in my mail yesterday:

     READ THE MOST RECENT SUPREME COURT DECISIONS ON
     TODAY'S IMPORTANT ISSUES! Tired of hearing about
     Supreme Court opinions and having only a vague
     knowledge of these momentous decisions? Whether
     you're a lawyer, a student of law or history, or
     simply crave a greater understanding of U.S. legal
     policy, U.S. Supreme Court Opinions provides a
     comprehensive CD-ROM reference of all Supreme
     Court opinions from 1990 to date. This easy-to-
     use software allows you to search for cases by
     keyword, so you can pull up all decisions related
     to a particular subject. You can also print
     unlimited copies of any opinion, making U.S.
     Supreme Court Opinions an ideal tool for use in
     study and discussion groups.

The catalog also indicates the CD-ROM disc has a suggested retail
price of $59.95 and comes in Mac- and DOS-compatible formats. I
don't know anything more about this product than what I've read
in this catalog description.
