Serato is more for people who already mix on turntables, but want to have access to their digital library. If you're going laptop only I'd go with Ableton.

I would agree. Since I learned to spin on turntables, I was looking into getting Serato so I could play mp3's. Then 'Darth Jonas' turned me to the Darkside with his CDJ's.

Just be like Jonathan Peters & buy 50 laptops so you can run Serato, Ableton, Traktor, Reason, Winamp visualizations, iTunes, windows media player, and do a virus scan at the same time...and a few more for shopping at Beatport while you play.
