Sorry to sound grumpy but can we keep this on topic please gang?

With regard to the Gemini/Cortex I hadn't mentioned the Cortex, that was someone else, but I wouldn't consider that either - (a) it appears to just be yet another random digital controller as opposed to an all-in-one and (b) it's not exactly a major brand either is it.

I'll repeat myself... As mentioned in my OP, I need kit through which I can play digital files (from a Windows laptop as that's what it's already on, although I'd consider changing from Traktor LE to something else) plus CDs. My choice but that's what I'm after. Any more suggestions?
