Given that it's a PIII and not a PII, I would lean towards Darren's suggestion of the Pro Tools M-Box.  It'll have pretty good mic pres built in and the editing power of Pro-Tools is hard to beat.  Plus, PT comes with a pretty nice set of Digital Signal Processors right out of the box.
 
 One thing you did not mention is the size of your hard drive, however.   When recording direct to .Wav, you're creating huge files that eat up hard drive space fast.  You may need to run a second hard drive dedicated to music data, then mix and archive to CD.  Still not very expensive - a second SCSI hard drive will run you about $250 to $300 all told.  So for $795 and the computer, you've got a 24 track digital recording studio.  You can spend the rest of the money on mics.
 
 People here are talking about recording direct  to CD - I'm not aware of that as a viable method.  CD burners are not fast enough to record in real time, nor are they reliable enough to trust with a session.  You either need to go to DAT, or right to the computer hard drive in real time.

If I broke one guitar string, how many would I have left?
