is a technics mk2 any good, it is an older one, btw are all panasonic technics direct drive?

technics mk2 sl1200 buying it off ebay for 225$. looks like it's missing a needle.

this is the other one getting it for about 435$. this is the sl mk5.

getting this also behringer vmx 300 115$.

getting a couple of these ls 15" floor monitors, cost me about 200$
and the headphones and i should be set. i also went on
satelliterecords.com and ordered about 30 vinyls ranging from tiesto to
50cent costs about 325$ but w/e. well just showing my starter kit i am open to advice.
btw is there a way i can hook my laptop up to the mixer to play mp3s?
whenever i feel like resting when i spin lets say if i ever get hired
for a party.
Also, anybody know a website i can order a burner that can hook up to a mixer to record select mixes?
