wow...I remember a bunch of years ago that someone was
running a website from their Newton and had it
displaying a camera image from a Connectix QuickCam
from his Mac.
They were using this software to capture the image and
was clickable from the browser. The owner of the
website claimed that the camera software would require
that he reboot his Newt on a regular basis though...
