Which external soundcard would you recommend me?

Hi everybody! Long time no see!

I have an white Ibook 500 mhz 192 ram and would like to hear recommendations of external soundcards for using Traktor for live DJ sessions. i'm telling you this because to get the best of this program you need 4 outs (2 master and 2 cue).

It doesn't need to be said, that the cheaper you can recommend me the best... at least for my pocket!

Any soundcards with this I/O config?

Basically, I need a 2 in/10 out soundcard. It doesn't have to be top of the line or support more then 24/48k operation but it does have to be cheap. The m-audio delta and ones similar to it only give you 8 1/4" outs with the others being S/PDIF. I need at least 10 1/4" out on it. If it has more then 2 in, thats ok, I just don't need them. Anyone know of any soundcards that do this?

installing soundcard? ground?

I just got my new soundcard and it says in the installation booklet that i have to ground myself when putting the soundcard in my computer. it says to hold a side of the computer? I dont really get that. i understand that the reason for this is to avoid breaking the soundcard with static or whatever else but i do not understand what i have to do to ground myself when installing it.
