My name il Alessio,
I'm writing from Italy and I'm aproaching to linux audio recording.
We've bought a ice1712 card and we use a P4 2.8Ghz (non HT) with 1Gb
of Ram, sata disks and a SiS MoBo.
Can someone give me an idea about the limits of this system?
Thansk in advance!

You'd be able to recording 8 channels simultaneously without a problem;
which is the # of channels your sound card limits you to. You can add
another ice1712 and have 16 (I use this setup).
The processor and memory should suffice for some good stuff, like Ardour
recording + Hydrogen (drum sampler) + LinuxSampler (maybe a piano sample)...

On my 1.2ghz athlon box with a slow ide disk i once managed to record 24
channels simultaneously (actually i was only using my ice 1712 8 inputs
(of which only 6 were actually delivering signal (delta 66)) and
connected each of those to three ardour tracks).
It was hitting the limits and showed some problems with ardour's disk
caching back then, but afterwards it went fine (especially with enlarged
caching times).
So with a recent CPU and a fast disk more should be possible.
