Advantages of the webcam:
Its a really small lightweight webcam that does its job as a webcam.
Disadvantages of the webcam:
Its a little old. It has a 640 x 480 resolution, which i am sure looked great in 2008. Ends up looking pretty blurry now on a 1080p monitor. Also its saturation is ungodly high, not really sure what to make of that. Adds to its charm really.
Author’s comment:
Pretty proud that this webcam still works. I found it in my dads drawers forgotten along with a whole bunch of other ancient technology. Doubly impressive I found the USB Driver for it (Granted its for Windows 7, but im running it on Windows 11 just fine) (was mildly worried about the download but my computer has yet to explode)
