One and all: Give your suggestions for a good quality, affordable interface for the beginners of the world.
I'm new to comuter based music production and I plan to run Logic Express 7 on a new iBook w/ 768mb of Ram. I need recommendations on audio interfaces with at least two input channels, including a good mic input as vocals will be a priority, hopefully under $500. This set up is to be used for demo song/sellable cd production; the focus however is to produce usable tracks for later studio additions. All suggestions are apreciated. Thank you.

if you need strong driver support, stay away from anything that says Mbox. my experiences with the Mbox 1 have been nothing but trouble. From what it looks like, the Mbox 2 doesn't seem much different. I saw the video - they say it uses USb 1.1 - then the guy, looking like he needs an excuse says "...for the widest compatibility..." Its almost a joke how much the thing has not changed, and how ugly it looks. [Sorry digidesign, i just have bad memories from those early OS X/pro tools LE/Mbox days.]
