okay, so i'm in the market for a synth but i have no idea what i'm doing.

what is the difference between a synthesizer and a workstation? which is better to get?

i'm a total beginner, but i used to play piano for a long time so i just don't know what to do with all this electronic stuff. i'm trying to make and record my own industrial/electronic/orchestral metal music.

i've been eyeing this korg, please give me some advice!! http://www.musiciansfriend.com/product/Keyboards/Midi/Synths/Workstations?sku=702236
