i feel the need to boast

my O levels results just got back

9 subjects, 7 A's, 2 A*'s (A* = >95% )

oh and as a side note, i want some opinions on webcams. im thinking of getting one.

what is a good frame rate? is 30 good? well seeing i never owned one before, i know little about them. manual zoom or digital zoom? brand? what you guys know about logitech ?

does it have to have msn compatible sign on it for me to use it as a webcam on msn? same with yahoo ?

well done braniac!

as for webcams, 30 is a good frame rate, normal tv is at 24 or 26 frams per second. As for MSN/Yahoo capable, thats bulls**t, if your webcam is recognised by your computer it will be recognised by MSN/Yahoo.

i thought so. so i'll be looking at a 30fps webcam then . . . hm...

what about the zoom? and logitech? how would you rank it ?

The human eye sees 24 frames per second to generate a smooth image. 30 is fine.

Arcon TV was broadcast using Logitech, theyre good cameras. As for zoom, do you think you'll ever need to use it?

Congrats on the Grades.

I use a logitech and unless you really need Extra sharp pic, it works ok and around $39 when I got it.

Carefull with the camera, though, I've heard you can be spied on with those things. Personally, I keep mine unplugged when not in use. And congraduations, but what were the courses? --- VH16

what use are grades if you haven't got the jobs to go to afterwards? everyone knows that it's social privilge and family connections that bring success, qualifications are meaningless. Why even bother? I wish I never had.
