Will this interface well with a computer? advice requested!

[devious]

I got this brand new for 50 bucks, It's the desktop version of the Master Keyboard, the Oberheim MC 3000.

 

This one is the MC 3000d [of course d signifying desktop]. I have said recently I plan on using my computer as a drum machine and I figure having a midi controller will help a little bit with it. I don't know what I'm looking for in a midi controller because it's one thing I haven't paid any attention to. I know these oberheim controllers are super duper rare and were made in Italy back in like 97 or 98. There's very little information on the Internet but here's a picture and here's some specs of it, does it sound like something that'll work as a MIDI controller? I have a KORG DW-6000 I've talked about in past that will bethe master keyboard then. Good combination for getting a little bit into the computer for sound?

 

Also, I do know these sold mostly in Europe and Australia, very few made it here to the states from what information I came up with. Wonder why? Does it suck? [edit AHAHA SORRY, EUROs!@# I didn't mean that it sucks because it was mostly sold to europe, bad way of putting it, it just seems like the sales of these were limited as were their creation.]
