Thumbs Up Logitech

A couple of months ago I started to travel fairly extensively. Being a married man it was quickly evident that being away from home as much as two weeks out of the month forces you to try to create new ways to be as close to home as possible.

An old high school buddy of mine works for Logitech and after hearing my circumstances took it upon himself to furnish us with two of their webcams: the Orbit.

I remember trying to get a much older model of Logitech camera working so I could have webcam conferences a couple of years ago using Windows 2000, and it was a total crap shoot. I am VERY happy to report that after downloading the drivers for this camera and getting it to work on the FIRST try three times in a row on three different computers that Logitech deserves a big thumbs up.

I know that Windows XP offers some help in this arena, but due to the success (and zero headaches) I felt that Logitech deserves some appreciation and I HIGHLY recommend this particular webcam to anyone who needs or wants this technology.
