Webcam for a Mac iBook?

Any suggestions? I don't want to have to spend £90 on the iSight but no other webcam seems compatible with a Mac.

Needed for MSN messenger chats and You-Tubing!

    Most FireWire webcams will work fine with your Mac. You might need to install mac drivers for USB connectors. Have you looked at Logitech? I have isight in my macbook pro and its excellent.

  • I'll have a look. thanks.

    I've heard those little cameras in the new MacBooks (MB Pro also) are great. Can't wait to get one of the new lappies but i don't like the keyboard spacing on the MacBook. Have you seen it? Arrrgh! Also i'm waiting for OS X Leopard ;)

    I dont like the glossy screens on the macbooks, my main reason for not getting one. Although they are a great spec for the money. No Im not keen on the strange keyboard either, I used to have an ibook for uni which was really handy. Now I have a 15inch screen so not as compact but i dont need a desktop mac at home now! Leopards been delayed hasnt it? I subscribe to mac user magazine which keeps me well informed on everything mac. Do you work in design?
