If you need the midi ports there is a chance that you are correct.

The audio ports though should work splendidly, support for envy24 based cards 
is generally very good in Linux, and quite sure this includes the DSP2000

As I said, if you really need the midi-ports you might be right. On the other 
hand, midi-ports are cheap, most mainboards come with joystick-ports 
nowdays... (perhaps not the same quality though). 
In general it's more of a question of what apps you intend to be using. VST is 
probably a more stable and more feature rich environment. 
Linux-audio is still in what "suits" like to call, early adopter stage, 
meaning that it's mainly applicable to people that really want to use it and 
are prepared to jump through a few hoops to do it.
But we are going to change that, right? ;)
