As long as they don't wind up phasing out the PCMCIA cards in the near future and go all firewire. Also a person could theoretically build USB audio devices that just strictly follow the USB standard, and they should work on linux, mac and windows the same, Edirol seems to be perhaps the best bet for future audio support simply because they strictly follow the USB audio standard. If maudio is allowed to keep supporting linux and RME keeps making the PCMCIA and PCI based systems then there's really no problem at all.
