ahh..... ;) pci has way, way more options that firewire. Personally i'd only use firewire if i had a laptop, and i didn't have cardbus slots in the laptop, and i couldn't buy a laptop that did.... ;) I.e i wouldn't use firewire without some freak event. M-audio, RME and echo pci gear all works well under linux. M-audio 1010, echo layla seem like nice options for a decent amount of inputs. The layla can do adat as well, and with both cards you can have multiple cards in one machine. So a few m-audio 1010's should satisfy any need. Depends if you need 24+ inputs or what. 8 is fine for me.
