buying a keyboard is a good idea. I have a real piano at home but I also have an M-Audio USB Keyboard that I can use with garageband. It's good for recording as you can input all kinds of midi instruments (like drums, bass etc) as well as playing piano on it. You can also spare your neighbours if you're just learning by wearing headphones.
A real piano is more expensive, bulky, heavy, needs tuning every couple of months. BUT nothing beats a real piano, keyboards always react slowy no matter how much they say they don't.
I'd advise a keyboard for now, if you get better then in a year or so you can always make the investment. If you give up, then no loss!
I have this one:
http://www.m-audio.com/products/…It on has 61 keys but you probably wont need 88 for now anyway.
I've been playing piano off an on my whole life and I've been getting more serious lately, it rules!
If you want to hear the keystation in action you can hear a piece I recoreded on it here:
