Well there is a free to try software called reaper which has a hardcore following, and it's $60 if you like it. I haven't used it though. Then there's ableton, who's intro software download is $99. It doesn't look or feel anything like garageband or reaper, but you can achieve similar results. Then there's sonar, whose entry level software probably isn't much more expensive.
And it seems like all of these have trial versions, so trying before you buy would probably be a good idea.
