Given the price and it's features, i'd like this:
http://www.pacificdigital.com/products/usbdrumset.asp#
It's around 250 quid I think - a lot lower than some of the other kit's around, due to the features below.
It connects to your PC via USB alone, and comes with some nice-looking software. As it uses the PC speakers, it'll go hand-in-hand with my Audigy 2 and my 5.1 setup, which i'm already proud of. They are some of the reasons why it appeals to me.
Judging from the NBC feature footage on there, it's a nice kit, just what i'm looking for.
I have no idea why i'm telling you all this - maybe to get some alternative advice or opinions.

If you buy it... Can I have it?
:P
:P
My drum teacher teaches me on one similar, but it's prettier. They are the coolest invention EVER. And for only £250, i'd go for it.
Theyre ok i guess, but as you would expect theyre nothing compared to proper drum kits. Bloody cheap though compared to real kits so i say go for it. Plus they're easier to transport/store aswell.
Plus the fact that my dad does night shifts and sleeps all day kinda removes all practicality of having acoustic drums - PLUS i'm very self-conscious about other people hearing me, so i'd prefer to practice to myself until I get my head round stuff.
That set is definitely in my sights.
However, I have to think hard for this one, because i have 450+ quid left in my account, which is non-renewable until a few year's time. I rarely take this much out - in fact, I don't remember where 2 grand could go...
To add to the situation, when I told my mum i was thinking about it, she goes and tells me that my bro is gonna get an acoustic Drum Kit any day now, even though he plays guitar, and lives in the same house, so the above problems apply until he shifts his ass and moves out.

I took a closer look at the specifications, and it doesn't really come with as many pads and pedals as a real kit, so I think i might pass after all...
Actually, the DX-150 version has the full house of pads - I was looking at the DX-100 I think.
Any good UK Music shops you can recommend, people?
