TPF Noob!
I've been taking more portraits than anything lately, so I've almost decided to take a plunge and buy a strobe lighting kit.
I've been looking at this ($669.95):

And its little brother ($239.00):

I've always heard that the alienbees stuff is good, but you're really just paying for the name more than getting a quality product.
Does anyone have any experience with this type of thing that might be able to shed some light on the subject (pun intended)? I'm pretty much looking for a "basic" kit, something that I can tote around to gigs and pretty much have everything neccessary in it.
Thanks.
