I'd say get an adapter that goes midi to serial plug OR get a soundcard (relatively cheap..50 to 100 bucks) that has a midi in and out, and simply hook up midi out from keyboard to midi in on the card. This will allow you to "write" notation into your machine, and I'm sure there are tons of programs available both shareware and purchasable stuff that'll do all you want. It helps to know the rudiments of midi though otherwise you'll be frustrated to no end trying to get a "sound" out of the dern thang. My soundcard does a better piano than the Alesis behemoth that claims does a great piano, sitting in the studio. Have fun.
