SpinnerBait writes "Professional DJs and House-Party Beat Masters alike, will certainly be interested in a new product that the folks at Hercules Audio are bringing to market shortly. Although you may remember Hercules for being one of the first in PC Graphics, HotHardware has a review and showcase up that takes a look at the new Hercules USB DJ Console. This little deck comes with dual mixing pads, for blending and scratching of your favorite MP3s etc. It also takes over as your main PC sound system, with full Dolby 5.1 capabilities, when plugged into any PC via USB."

Flight simulator on an 8086... If you flew the plane over 65536 feet, you'd come up through the ground again.

I don't think they're trying to sell it to professional DJs.

If they were, it would cost $2500 instead of $250. They'd also be selling it through specialty stores that are only open on Tuesdays between 12:30 pm and 3:53 pm, and are staffed by surly lesbians.

I think they're targeting the tinkerers and the wedding DJ types, the kinds of people that buy those Newmark "DJ in a box" setups and mixers from Radio Shack.
