Sounds great for a tower cam!

Will it run under Linux?  What about security?

You may be able to control what video you send out
but what door might their software open for folks
to peek into your PC ... if it is a MS-proprietary
app.

Just wondering ... these days one really has to
worry about security and Microsoft ... world class
marketing but third-world security and Q & A.
