Purchasing New Equipment - Need Advice/Suggestions

So I'm about to make a purchase, but I don't have enough to do everything at once. So I'd like to know what purchase I should make first that would give me the most improvement up front. I kinda know the answer but I guess I am looking for a confirmation.

I have the option to purchase the 003 Factory (upgrading from the 001), I would still use the preamps from my mackie.

Looking to add to current setup - Suggestions?

I have done some basic recordings in the past. Basic as in acoustic guitar, then record vocals separately as another track. I generally use Audacity (funny right?) but I recently got a legal copy of Adobe Audition 3 from a friend that just upgraded to a Mac.

Here is my current set up:

Mixer: Behringer Eurorack MX802A
Mic: MXL 990
