Redhat is an ecellent choice esp if you get into the planet ccrma catalog.
The question of hardware really depends on what your intentions are. I
assume professional from your email footer.
Multitracks cards are basically RME or maudio delta 1010. There are
others choices but they don't get as much of a working so the drivers
may not be as well designed as they could be.
Will you be building a new PC or using your mac?
