You would be better using MIDI - It's easy to create a custom controller definition and mapping in VirtualDJ v6: http://www.virtualdj.com/wiki/VDJscript.html

RS-232 is pretty much dead and gone.. completely replaced by USB and Ethernet..
Since you can now purchase USB chips that do all of the signalling for you, you would be better off concentrating on that..

Yeah I've heard HID is the easiest. Check out djtechtools.com there's lots of articles on homemade controllers and ones made by smaller companies.
