Not quite - In addition to remote programming, the DSX series has single pair phones, and built in VM on a CF card. The 824 is an additional box.
Also the DSX has a SIP gateway option that in addition to supporting remote SIP phones, with latest software supports SIP trunks
The 824 also requires additional card(s) for CLID
The analog/prop ports are a nice feature, and also allows both a prop Panasonic and POTS phone on a single extension
I believe the 824 is also now MD, but some decent buys can be found in the used market.

Any of the mentioned products would be a better solution for a newbee. Hang on the wall, do some quick programming, and forget it for the next 20 years, barring a power or lightning hit.
No steep learning curve required. Certainly less expensive hardware
