STOP YELLING!!!!

The main difference between the two is the bowens is a set of matching monolights (the strobe, capacitor, power supply, and all controls are in the same unit) and the Broncolor is a Strobe/powerpack combo (The controls, power supply, and capacitors are in the power pack, which the "dumb" strobes plug into)
I wish I this kind of money to throw at strobes right now! I envy you if you are seriously considering either of these!
I think, personally, I would go with the mono light set, they're very simple, and typically easier to find accessories for than the other systems. For a newbie to strobe lighting, the mono lights will make learning a lot easier.
