I would go with the Terratec EWS88MT, however you can get a new one for $400 US. You can also get a new ST Audio C-Port DSP2000 for $450 US. Either of these has 8 analog I/O channels. If you just need 4 channels, get the Delta 66. Check out http://myweb.cableone.net/eviltwin69/ALSA_JACK_ARDOUR.html.
