[bayley]

i recently bought a new laptop, A dell D600 (which i hope is not going to burst into flames afer reading the battery thread on SOS!!!!) anyway, i need a usb soundcard for the laptop. i will be using it for recording my dj mixes into soundforge, and also for using music software such as reason and cubase. i have been looking at a few different soundcards, if any1 out there reading this owns, has used or knows anything about any of these, especially if u could reccomend which 1 would cater to my needs the best, i would love to hear from you. here are the 1s i have been looking at:

Tapco link USB - http://www.dv247.com/invt/32409/

Mackie Spike - http://www.dolphinmusic.co.uk/page/shop/flypage/product_id/3450

Emu 0404 usb SC - http://www.turnkey.co.uk/web/productAction.do?dispatch=showProduct&SKU=EMU-0404USB&context=WEB&make=Emu&model=0404%20USB%202. 0

and finally the M audio audiophile - http://www.turnkey.co.uk/web/productAction.do?dispatch=showProduct&SKU=MMAN-AUDIOUSB&context=WEB&make=M-Audio&model=Audiophile%20USB

i would really appreciate some help with these, or of course suggestions for other 1s. i wanted to order 1 today so if any1 can help it would be great!! thatnks in advance.
