both the virus ti and the nord lead are "virtual analog" which means their sound generation is completely digital. the only analog thing about them is that they contain DACs at the output stages.
$ exp(j*pi) + 1 = 0. $ |

bullet_proof, if you need MIDI, go for something new and if you don't, and want the analog warmth with natural keyboard parts, you can go for real vintage stuff.
I think SH-101 is also a nice thing,
and of course the miniMoog, you can try this site, the official moog reseller:

(hmm i have no idea where u are from  , this is israeli reseller)

if u want real analog sound go for the dave smith evolver.roland sh101 is also great!

what exactly do you want to learn from her/him? if you want to learn to play (i.e. exercise your brain/fingers) i strongly recommend to learn on a real piano, on plastic keyboard/synth keys you won't get anywhere. if you want to learn how to create sounds you're fine with a synth. it's best to reverse-engineer existing patches and to make your own patches as often as you can.
good luck!

bullet_proof, if you love music, piano lessons will be A LOT of fun. especially, when you one day discover to your teacher what you're doing with what he/she teaches you
Another aspect: real piano has really weighted keys. This means you get your fingers developed to do the right motion, and to control their strength, which is important.
take piano lessons, man!
