Re: Ed Roberts

Yes I read about his research some time ago. Sorry to see another genius go, but I guess that's all in our life-cycle. I'm sure he will be missed.

Re: Using webcams as security cameras

you need a socalled 'switcher'. They switch at a variety of timed intervals. Or you can view all 8 cams at the same time and select a screen with the click of the mouse.
