Korg Microstation/X50 or Roland Juno Di

I didn't think the Juno Di editor worked on windows 7 64 but apparently it does (according to a thread on Roland forum).

I'm having a terrible time deciding between these synths. I want something with good quality for live performance and recording, especially acoustic piano. I am not impressed with the Microstation grand piano but the sad piano sounds good. Are the Di piano sounds better?

If you HAD TO buy one of these three, which one would it be and why?
Thanks, I really appreciate everyone's input.

IMO, I would buy a microstation. Better sound engine, it has a sequencer, and i could control it using a midi keyboard (i hate little keys). I don't like how X50 sounds and I hate how roland make keyboards easy to break.

Would you recommend the MicroStation over the PS60 too? I hope the little keys aren't bad.

They sound just the same, the thing is, ps60 has big keys and no sequencer (I played with one, I hated the keys, but well, its not sooo bad) and the microstation has a sequencer (so you can make entire songs inside the keyboard). If you just want to play in a band, or you like to play live, I would advise to buy the ps60. If you will make electronic music, or you want to compose anywhere, well, the microstation is great!
