im looking at dj mixers and a new laptop

right now i have a lenovo g550 with windows xp, an intel processor, 3 gb ram and a 350 gb hdd

the mixer is a hercules rmx with virtual dj

ive been suggested my next move to be the djm800 with serato sl3

im wondering about the xone 4d --> could you have 4 decks going?

or rane 68 if is a better option for the multiple and exciting possibilities of djing the future --> especially four decks and using the bridge(ableton/serato)... are my eyes bigger than my stomach? i have the coin, i want the right equipment, but i dont want to make an ass of myself and piss all my money away on bunk and/or overpriced hardware. what is your dream set up? or do you have the dream and want to share what you already got?

Do you plan on djing w/ cdjs? turntables? or do you plan to continue digital djing?

i would like to get a couple technics 1210 turntables for now. i do enjoy the digital djing but i feel like im cheating(especially with the jog wheels and a goddamn sync button, although it can save your ass). i would like to have the real feel of vinyl but it seems like everything now is going digital.

what would you suggest if i went and kept it digital but wanted to uprgade from the hercules?

what would you suggest if I went with turntables, a mixer and a laptop(and what kind of laptop is gonna kick ass)?

Virtual Dj has been nice but it seems as though serato 2.0 or the bridge is really the software i want to f*ck with to make mixes and produce.
