Does anyone local have a Mac-compatible webcam they can get to me ASAP?

We'll be out of the house til likely 10, 11 AM, We're home now! and will be home the rest of the day/night.

Yes, it is really important that we have one pronto. Just to borrow, not to keep. No, I can't openly post why, but I'll tell you in person if you lend me one.

Respond here, or call Adam's cell-phone number if you have it.

Thanks!

The one frustration I have with Macs is webcams. If you're doing video conferencing, like with iChat or something, then they work ok, I suppose. If you're doing anything else, finding the software to make it work right is a bitch and a half and I still haven't found anything good that actually does what I want.

Do you have isight in your machine? Many macs come with the vid already in it. Are you on a laptop or a desktop?

She got her machine before iSights became standard.

The unofficial official internet historian, heh.

I should make an icon for that...

I'd express mail mine to you if I had one. Good luck!

Depending on the chat system, a digital camcorder with a Firewire hookup might work, too. That's something I've done in the past.
