welcome geoki, i have the feeling you aren't going to get many replies here. it's not because you choose to use a PC either, it's because we only read this thread to bitch about how bad the new mbox is and what fools digi thinks we are. i know i've done my share on this and other lists! i've actually had all my mbox2 posts deleted on the DUC forum, so i know digi loves me, not.
anyway, you're one of the lucky ones, all us folks using PTLE are stuck with either this low end crap box 1 or 2 or we'll have to shell out real loot to get something only slightly better, but you can have your pick of some of the new and exciting things out there. if i wasn't in this boat i'd be buying:
Focusrite Saffire - onboard DSP and 24-bit/192kHz processing for $399!? can't go wrong there. i still might get one, just to play around with.
Presonus FIREBOX - 24-bit/96K and cubase for $299
M-Audio FireWire 410 24-bit 192kHz. i actually bought one of these for a project and ended up using it way more than i should have. some folks had problems with theirs, but mine has always worked fine. mine came with Reason adapted and Ableton Live lite version (what ever it was called i loved it and upgraded to the real one!) and now it's a good path to go pro tools in the future.
hope this gives you a starting point. if i were you i'd post your message on another forum (to get the PC folks advice) and start your own thread because this one's going to get buried amongst all the complaints.
enjoy!
