My suggestion is to save your money and give linuxsampler a try.
But, how can I create my own Gigasamples, or what else are they
called? Is there only Windows software?
Thanks!

The developement version of swami (http://swami.sourceforge.net/) has
introduced sume basic support for the gigasample format. I've never
used it for this, but I've succesfully produced some custom sf2
samplebanks with it and used them with fluidsynth (via qsynth,
http://qsynth.sourceforge.net).
If you couple one of the tools above with Pure Data, you can reach an
umbelieveble level of flexibility.
For instance, I'm making a pd patch that is basically a virtual
drummer, with different ranges of random variation, both for timing
and for velocity, routed to linuxsampler with a very good quality drum
bank I've found at
http://www.naturalstudio.co.uk/ns_kit7freedownload.html
Another patch I'm working on can make a good piano soundbank sound
even more realistic, implementing some of the intrinsicnesses of a
real piano, like the sympathetic vibration of a string when the key is
pressed and I play the same key at an octave above, or the fact that
if I've just hit a key and I hit it again when the hammer hasn't had
the time to go back in the rest position, and
...the key should play at a lower velocity. :-P
so on.
In bocca al lupo.
