Audio Interface And The Switch. Options

[MazingaZ]

I am not a mac owner but may well will be. My girlfriend has me convinced that this titanium I'm typing on is the way to go. I woulld get the bigger screen of course. Aluminium one.

Anyway now I have a Vaio PC thingy with a Wami box that obviously dosen't work on a mac, it barely works on PC. What I'm looking for is an audio interface for the mac. I know there are alot out there, I just don't know what can be used on a mac these days. I don't know where to look/"shop" on the internet. I want to go screen shopping so to speak see some specs. Can someone point me in the right direction?

I'm looking for something with one stereo 2x1/4 input and double the output jacks with or without midi. Something PCMCIA or firewire. Actually my edirol um1? may work with a mac so I guess I don't need the midi. I think I'll wait untill firewire gets cheaper.

What does everyone use for their Al-book? And where can I see a bunch of these things, please don't say at the music store because I'm in Korea and that is alot different here. There is one big music market that I can't get to everyday.

My set up is the mixer to the audio interface. The audio interface running a sampler out to mixer. Oh yea, how about a good sampler for mac? Audio interface out to monitors. Headphones out of the audio interface.

I originally read this in a post over at osxaudio.com... m-audio keeps pushing the date back. zzounds actually lists an anticipated availability date of July 11, while Musician's Friend lists July 25.

Thanks! It's getting discouraging; Sam Ash cannot seem to come up with a number!
