Thoughts on this PC? Should i buy

I looked it up and results say that its firewire? heres a quick question. some of the interfaces ive seen that say mic preamps on there have a different shaped input (not 3 prongs) but some diamond shape in the middle, what will i need to hook my mic into that (it has a 3prong xlr cord)

oh maybe it is firewire... It has been a while since I looked at that one. the diamond hole thing is probably a combo jack.

it can take 1/4" and XLR also...

hmm im prolly going to go with another firewire interface, so my midi problem i can solve with a separate usb to midi cable right?
