What 4E books should I get for a new campaign?

I'm going to seriously think about getting a DDI subscription. If I used a PC, it would be a no brainer, but setting up a virtualization option just for DDI seems a bit much. I might get it anyway for the Compendium, but I'll have to think about it.

Thanks again for the advice.

If you are uncertain, you can drop as little as 10 bucks and get a 1 month subscription. It's invaluable for preparing for a game. Watch out for auto-renew though.

I have friends that are mac users that have set up their virtual PC just for compendium and they love it. Absolutely worth the time and effort. The Monster builder (BETA, use at own risk) and Character Builder are going to be best of class tools.
