Firebox or Firewire 410 ?

Hi all, I am new to this forum :D
I am considering to choose within PreSonus and Maudio. My question is can Firebox connect to surround receiver (5.1 system?) I know Maudio 410 can connect to a (7.1 surround system).

and I am a PC user,I saw some posts said there is some new PCMCIA firewire 800 (1394b) card can give out buspower, is that true?

Any reason I should not buy an M-Audio FireWire Solo?

I think I am going to get the M-Audio FW Solo. I currently have a Tascam US-122. I'm looking to get the AD / DA inputs that the Tascam lacks. Is there any reason to avoid the FW solo? If so, why? and then, what do you recommend instead in the $200-300 range?

I'm using a 15" PowerBook with Tiger and only record Vocals and the occasional hardware synth or drum machine.
