DCC vs. DC

I'm brand new to DCC, and back into model railroading after more than twenty years. I got the Zephyr, and love every minute of it. I think compared to NCE's starter set, the Zephyr is the only one of those two that has the ability for a computer interface, if you ever think of running your layout with software. Don't rule it out. I didn't think i'd ever want a computer running my layout, but after more and more reading, I decided to buy a set that had that ability. Besides, it sounds like the Zephyr is less expensive than NCE. I got mine for 149. It also sounds to me like the Zephyr can do more. It'll do more than I'll ever need it to. <br /> <br />[quote]QUOTE: <i>Originally posted by mtb2005</i> <br /><br />Hey Guys. <br />I'm building my first layout that I designed. In the future I'd like to build something bigger than the 4x8 I'm building currently. Right now I'm faced with the choice of buying a basic DC pack or buying a entry level DCC system (MRC Prodigy or Digitrax Zephyr). I like the MRC's handheld walk around, but I was wondering if it had as many expansion options and features as the Digitrax. I am also curious about what you can do with hooking up a computer to operate your layout. <br /> Thanks for any info, <br /> mtb2005 <br />[/quote]
