I've been using an RME Multiface/CardBus for some time now as an interface to my laptop (running Linux) for field recordings (mostly acoustic ensembles) and portable editing. I chose this for its range of compatibility with different software packages and for the company's approach to modular product design. On top of that, it is stable, durable, and sounded better than, or comprable to, anything else I tried near the same price range. I haven't used their firewire products, but have heard good things about them. By the way, I'm a new ARSC member and new to this list so, "hi all."
