Scout,

I'll have to second what swilder said. It's all about: "How will you be using the interface?"

I have a M-box and have enjoyed learning ProTools LE. It's easy to use for what I'm doing...laying down guitar and vocal trax to songs I've written. Don't get me wrong the interface can do way more, but for my needs it works perfect.

However, I'm not doing any synth or MIDI work with the M. From what I understand from reading the forums digi doesn't do a good job of incorporating MIDI.

My only complaint about the Mbox is the preamps are weak. So I'm looking at the Focusrite TT Pro to supplement the lack of amp power. Along with a good condenser mic and preamp the Mbox is a good tool.
