Can anyone help?

I'm looking to record two live acoustic instruments or vocals (classic guitar and flute or voice), probably with small condenser mics, and have enough software to clean up the recordings and publish and burn to cd.
I have a Mac G4 400mhz w/640 ram.
I'm thinking of Garageband, but am not sure what else I need. Will something like an M-Audio Delta 1010 card be enough to get going? Should I get Protools instead of Grageband?
Would I be better off with an MBox or a Motu 828 or something like that?

I will also be doing some composing in the near future, and will probably get Reason or Logic Pro. Should that have any impact on what I need right now, just for recording? Thanks everyone!

You can use Audacity for recording. May be you can get by with Reason 2.5 which doesn't eat up CPU much.

Thanks azusa,
My intention is to beef up my Mac first, then go for the other stuff.
