MI4 vs today's interfaces?

Hi Gang - My first post. Thx in advance for any direction you can offer.

In 2004 I bought a Cubase System 4 and did a bit of home recording until the Cubase daw drove my nuts and I stopped.

Fast forward to today; I'm about to start recording again and wonder about the MI4 - the interface that came with the Sysytem 4 many moons ago.

Anyone know how it compares to today's interface in the $150-$200 range? I'm guessing today's have better preamps and specs, but - before I spend money on a new AI - just want to make sure the MI4 isn't a vintage gem with high quality guts, blah, blah, blah.

Assuming it's not a keeper, I'm guessing a Fosrite or Presonus unit will do me just fine.

Btw, I'll be single-tracking acoustic guitars, vocals, harmonies, drum loops, etc. Nothing exotic!

Thanks,
