    Hi,

    My T500 is a P8400 running at 2.26 GHz. It has 3 Gb RAM and is running with a Intel GMA4500M HD.

    With this hardware, what webcam is best? I think the new MS Lifecam HD has a super picture and sound, but I'm worried that my hardware isn't enough for that webcam.

    Are there webcams specially designed for laptops? It must be used for Skype, Messenger and such only.

    The price is completely irrelevant.

    Just a quick update: It seems that with my specs, I would be better off with a Logitech Webcam Pro 9000 or the Logitech Portable Webcam C905.

    Does anyone have seen these 2 for comparasing? Also would the clip on the Pro 9000 fit my T500 laptop screen?

    Thanks,
