Either Mobilepre USB or FireWire Solo from M-Audio, but you have to give up multichannel output unless you hook it up to a decoder through toslink or coxial. Firewire is better for multimedia, but may not work in Linux. Also using USB for audio in Linux is not stable and reliable. I suggest use PCMCIA (aka PC Card or Card Bus) that converts it into a PCI slot. Then you can use any PCI sound card that has such features. IMHO, notebooks computer are not the way to go for audio recording. I suggest making a desktop computer that has a 12 volt or 24 volt power supply. Yes, it will be clumsy to move a bulking item from one location and then to the next, but it is more reliable, stable, and a lot faster.
