this would mean I'd buy the PCMCIA interface; I wonder though if my next
machine will still provide a PCMCIA interface? I guess they will die rather
sooner than later.

There is a PCIe (PCI Express Card) as well for the same interface. And RME will keep up with the trends for shure ....
These audiointerfaces are state-of-the-art since like 10 years or so (?!). There is nothing better for the money. You can buy a used Multiface with PCMCIA card for 350 euros or less.

RME is the best : ) !!!

True. Frankly, my Behringer 28 channel MX 2804 still is a good solution, but
audio quality is poor. I have a lot of problems with hum and stuff. That's
why I want to replace it with something more reliable. Any mixer you would
recommend?
