It plugs into a USB2 port on your computer.

It requires Photo Both type software for simple USB cameras

There's a CD that comes with it but the literature was rather vague about exactly what's on the CD

I run Linux and there's a program called "Cheese" that'll run the camera.
We should share what we know... someone may learn...
That knowledge can live after us... and that "Pays It Forward".
Be all that you can be . . .
