Macs, MSN Messenger & webcams

A while ago there was some discussion (as I recall when preiffer acquired an iSight camera) about using webcams on Macs over the MSN Messenger network. Microsoft's Messenger client for MacOS doesn't support webcams.

Apple users in this situation (especially those lucky enough to have got a shiny new MacBookPro or new iMac, with built-in iSight) may be interested in aMSN - Alvaro's Messenger. This is an opensource (i.e. free!) MSN Messenger 'clone' which does support webcams.

Enjoy.

[Note to Mods - I'd have put this in the previous thread, except I thought it had moved-on sufficiently from that conversation to justify a new topic. Hope that's OK ;) ]

Ooooh - Nice one Dave [y]

Let me play, let me play... Download now... [:w]


(Rumour has it MS are about to axe MSN for OSX development in the next 4 months anyway. That's another one gone then... [ii])
