I think it's better to use a USB or PC Card sound device on the laptop, and feed the processor over S/PDIF, preferably optical. Isolating the laptop from the sound gear seems like a good idea.
Also, there's a bunch of pretty good reasons to have a mixer in there... mic input for announcements or MCs, booth monitor output, phono and line inputs for other DJs or to hook up a live PA. Master volume control... what happens if your laptop decides to put out Dolby Digital over S/PDIF. That won't sound nice at full volume.
Perhaps the real need is a mixer with USB input as well as S/PDIF. I'm pretty sure those exist. Or a processor that incorporates mixer functions that can be controlled from the laptop or a wired remote console.
