is it possible to use a good PCI sound card in an external case via firewire or USB, just like a DVD drive? Just wonder as it would solve a lot of my problems trying to get a high quality device ie at least 24/96. Many of the options I am looking at m-box and even mini-me will only record up to 24/48. I would like 24/96. I wish Apogee would upgrade the mini me's USB capability.

not possible. Even the lowest PCI specs specify 33MHzx32bits, or just over 1Gbps. Theoretical max for 1394b(the new one only one macs) is only 800Mbps. There are also all sorts of problems in communication latency and the ability of PCI to do DMA...
in short, never gonna happen
