I’d like to make/have a variety of different tones, but I’m a total idiot in terms of what equipment I need. I’ve heard of synthesizer keyboards. Is that what I want?

Lots of synthesizers can produce slow, moving sounds like Eno uses. Some of the more famous ones are:
1. Roland JD-800 or the rack version, JD-990
2. Korg WaveStation (any version)
3. Korg Karma
4. Yamaha SY-22 or the rack version, TG-33
5. Sequential Circuits Prophet VS
6. Korg MS-2000 (any version)
Most modern synthesizers have wave or motion sections as well. Korg seems to dominate in this field. Their TR61, R-3, and M-3 all do this well.
There are also software synthesizers that can run inside your computer. These are good for recording, but not as great for live playing. If you run a software synthesizer, install a regular sound card and disable (from the BIOS) your computer’s built-in sound chip.
If the software synths are VST, you’ll need a VST host like Sonar or Cubase. There are some free VST hosts and software synths here:
