I don't know who told you that. Probably someone who has no concept of recording with a PC. Maybe there is a use for using a multitrack recorder with a PC, but I don't know what it is as I am a realtive newbie myself.

Exactly, wht is the point of a multitracker if you have a PC... unless you don't have multitracking software on your PC. So go and get some software: SOnar, Cubase, Protools, CollEdit...whatever. Decide what you need to do, how much $ you have and get some good software.

You said you had been recording with a PC so I assumed you had multi tracking software.
