I don’t know a lot about computer recording however I have heard that “fruit loops” is quite a popular drum loop type program.
There is also a wealth of soft were available at places like misic123, try searching “loops”

Its called FruitY loops.
Its a very very good program. THE closest you'll come to drums with an actual set. And even then, micing them is a huge issue.
Its hard to get the hang of. But a few days after trying to do some songs, itll come to you.

Question: why dont you just programm the drums note per note with the mouse? programm a few rythms (say 2 bars each) and then copy and paste. Logic (for example - i guess cubase does it to - its somewhere in "logicalEditor" as far as i remember) offers the posibility to "humanize" it so that it gets slight variations in volume and position. Makes it sound a lil less mechanical - plus there it the groove-quantization.
then you just copy and paste your loops.

Yeah I found the program Midi keys which is kind of what i was looking for. But later I saw that it's kind of easier to make rythm like Azrael said.
