Default plans for acoustic computer enclosure?

With current gear for the home recordist it has become, for all
practical purposes, a moot point ... and many are capable of both USB2
and Firewire operation. Mark Of The Unicorn (MOTU) sells some pretty
good gear for the home recordist with that in mind, as well as TasCam,
as you mentioned.

I would worry more about computer processor power, as audio glitches,
that really pop up (no pun intended) when a single processor comes close
to maximum utilization, are the achilles heel of home recording for most.

Hard to beat a minimum of dual processors and multi-threaded software ...
