Can someone help me with MIDI?

I'm using my laptop with Sony Acid Software for the 1st time. I use a Roland midi controller and Roland JV1010 sound module to play my sounds. I noticed that the only way I can really hook my midi controller up to the laptop is by connecting the midi cable from the controller to the JV1010 and then a 9 pin d-sub from the back of the JV1010 to a 8 pin serial port on my laptop.

Why MIDI?

So I have been trying to get into recording scene for a while and have been somewhat successful so far. I do, however, have a very small budget (maybe 100 bucks evey few months and $200-300 once or twice a year) so my resources are limited and I have to choose things carefully.
