    The IDT codec in my dragon will not play nice with asio4all, so I'm forced to buy something.

    I have USB 2.0, mini firewire, and expresscard ports available. I'd prefer something bus powered and only need single stereo input for my guitar or vocals.

    Ideas?

    Presonus Firebox. Well under $200 (USD) on ebay, and probably in stores if you haggle. (USD of course). For under $200 with your requirements, this is going to give you probably the best inputs and outputs you can get.
