Default Do U need Protools soundcard 4 Protools software?

Hello, sorry the short title for my first post but i guess that's all the letters I am allowed.

What kind of soundcard can you use with Protools or do you have to use the soundcard included with the software when you buy the software? thanks!

Pro Tools software must have a Digidesign interface ("Soundcard") to function (Pro Tools MPowered requires M-Audio interfaces). It will not recognize any other interface ("soundcard") for I/O.

ProTools Free will work with many different cards including consumer level, But only on Win98 for PC or OS9 (i think) on mac.
