I start playing piano on last october, learning all by myself, buying basic piano books, watching youtube, and practice with all my heart. and I choose songs that can make me feel good when playing.

It will be hard and slow progress without teacher, but if you put your effort and love into it, it will do.

Actually you do... it's recommended that you get a soundcard/external audio interface (If you haven't already!) that supports ASIO and low-latency monitoring. Of course, you need a good software synths to convert your MIDI to actual audio. If you're playing piano, you could find some decent freewares here :http://www.kvraudio.com/
As for commercial synths check out Steinberg The Grand 2, NI Akoustik Piano and Truepianos. smile.gif

Second Sky.Live's suggestion. smile.gif You'ill get more brands to choose from there. Check out CME, which is apparently well-built and plays very well. smile.gif

Also, since you would be traveling and a beginner, you might as well as get a 61/64-key to save space. I don't think a full-size keyboard would be necessary at the moment. smile.gif

Pianoteq is impressive.. Especially the latest version
