pads/rotors - how hard to DIY?

I've done pads and rotors on other cars in the past. I have never tried it on a boxster. my dad has done the pads on the boxster, but never rotors.

the car needs all new rotors/pads all the way around.

if i just order OEM stuff and break out a six pack, and sit down to do this in my garage - are there any special tool i need to do this on the boxster, or is it basically just like any other car in terms of difficulty?

the dealer wants to rape me to the tune of almost $1600 for front/rear rotors an dpads + labor. i can get the parts for less than half that..and the idea of doign the brakes myself sounds kind of fun.

thanks! just need to know if this is an easy DIY like i think it is...
