If you wanna use PT and don't have more than 500 to spend then the MBox and a used 001 are your only options (no support for the 001 past version 6.4 which is too bad cuz 6.7 has some nice updates). The monitoring system on the MBox is a lil weird, no midi connection and it's USB, not my first choice for audio.

For the same price there are plenty of firewire, USB and pci options out there that will give you more in/out, midi, etc. but no Pro Tools so.........

yeah i hear ya on that one.
i don't use pro tools right now anyway,
and while i know it is the studio standard
what i use now, acid, sound forge, and ableton live seem to work just fine.
i just don't know of any firewire interfaces that work with those.
