Hey everybody...

I need some suggestions for a webcam that I can use with my Dell Laptop (Inspiron 9300). Last night, I was using AIM to chat with my brother, who just got a new Apple Powerbook/ibook with the Intel chips and a built in webcam on the monitor. I want to purchase a webcam that is relatively cheap (maybe $40 at the most) and rather portable. Granted, it doesn't have to be portable, but I think something that could clip on to the top of my "screen" would be nice. Also, a pretty good "refresh rate" (or whatever terminology is used) would be nice, as I don't want it to be super choppy.
Any suggestions from you all would be extremely appreciated! I've asked for help before here (when I had a trojan virus that sent Norton haywire!) and you all were EXTREMELY helpful, and I really appreciate it. I beg for your wisdom and knowledge again...
Thanks in advance! :whistling:
