It was too good to be true, now that my computer is back up and running my webcam has decided to die and I'd barely ever used the thing, I have a much older one I can use but after playing around with it for a while I realised it was a piece of crap so of course it works perfectly.
I guess this means I'm in the market for a new webcam, it's not something I use often but they are handy to have, I've got no idea what I'm going to get but I want a good quality unit that will hopefully last at least a few years.
