Hmmmm. You people who know about these things, is that a decent one? Seems like a good deal, but I've never looked seriously at buying one.

BTW, cool website!! ::sets bookmark::

I have a webcam built into my notebook, but have no idea how to use it. I don't get into chat very often anymore but I like the idea.

I don't think there is such a thing as a decent webcam. They all take pretty crappy images/video compared to a real digital camera. The comments at woot say that the microphone for this one is crappy.

For what it's worth, Amazon offers the same webcam for $27 for one. So woot has a good price.

It might be kind of nice to web cam with my clothes ON for a change.

Pro versus Con. I can't think of any Cons.

That's because you haven't seen a naked picture of me.

But rarely chat because I'm in the wrong time zone.
And my parents don't have a wireless hub, so I won't be doing it from here.

So that's effectively a no.

LJ - your massive heid won't fit on a webcam :)
And I think you owe me a PM?

Parents? Have you moved again?

I succumbed and ordered one. It's got better image quality than my old one, it supports USB 2.0, and it has a clamp to fit on top of my laptop. (Hercules Deluxe Optical Glass, $20 + free shipping from Newegg. They're out of stock at the moment though.)

Yeah ya turd. You got the last one. /whine
