There are plenty. The Sound Blaster Extigy was a high end system that was around for nearly a decade, even before USB 2.0.

For basic sound in a laptop, there are a number of compact solutions available at a good price.

Startech actually has a decent reputation for low priced gizmos.

Thanks for the link. I'll spend more time checking it out. I guess I'll need a USB docking port, (one in and four out) since I'm running out of USB slots.

What about the old case I've never used? Is it worth my time to build an old ATX system?
