Which DCC system to buy?

Like so many others, I'm in the same boat. <br />Have layout now that's on DC with blocking and has throtles for four trains. The layout's essentially two loops, with two interchange tracks, a small yard and some industrial sidings. I could do four trains on it, possibly five. I'd like to be able to do switch control through the DCC system and play around with automated computer control, being something of a computer geek as well. Auto-reversing would also be a huge help. Walkaround might be nice, but on a 4x8 layout it's not essential. <br />The Zephyr certianly seems to have the right price, given that I'd also have to spend money on the DCC controllers. Some people have suggested that might be a bad move, both because Digitraxx is bad (I have no way to know) and 'starter' sets are pointless. From the material it seems that the Zephyr can be expanded to do a lot of things. Anybody had experience with that?
