Anyway. I plan on buying Canon EOS Digital Rebel XT 350D SLR Camera very soon. Once I get that taken care of and have a few extra dollars... I want a good Macro lens.

Sigma?

Canon?

Something cheaper but as good?

Something I wouldn't know about?
I use a Tamron f2.8 90mm macro. Same image quality as the Canon, much cheaper, but slower autofocus. As already stated, AF and macro don't really mix. Manual focus is always your best choice along with extensive use of the DOF preview.
