Most newbies make the fatal mistake of buying production equipment base on what others have.  However I would Caution You to Start With Your strengths.  if your good with drum machines start with one.  If your good at playing the piano use your talent.  There is no use for a 88 key keyboard if you cant play a chord.  Stick to your Strengths

Which Computer To Buy to make beats

My best advice when choosing a computerfor your Music Studio is to stay away from brand names like, Dell, IBM, Emachines and Compaq.  These manufactuer have a proprietary computer board.  In a nut shell the're hard to upgrade.  Adding a high-end soundcard or mixing console will be a problem later.  Use brands like Sony, Alienware or a custom built computer will work well. Use the same advice for laptops. 

Also Stay way from computers with cheap processors. Intel Celerons and AMD Semprons will glitch on Audio Playback.  Stick to Petium 4 or higher for good results
