That's a cool setup. In re synths, the "way better audio quality" is difficult to support IMO. Nothing in your list (including the Logic softsynths) has particularly good aliasing characteristics, for instance.
I personally don't use OASYS as a workstation; I use DP for sequencing and recording. I just use OASYS as a synth, which also happens to be the part that my group worked on. It's absolutely more expensive than other solutions - kind of like that Apogee interface. Is it worth it? That depends on whether or not you hear the differences that it provides, and if you hear them, whether or not you feel that you need them.
I'll leave other people to speculate on the resale value of softsynths, software, laptops, and audio interfaces vs. synths....
