Here is the first part of a Japanese iPhone Magazine video walk through I did. I had to go fast and the quality isn’t the best but you can get a general feel for it. If you see something that peaks your interest let me know and I will do a more detailed look at the specific page or pages.

It works good for most things in OSX and on the web but I cant get iMovie09 to recognize it no matter what I do.  This is not that big of a deal, but there are some occasions where I would like to import directly from this iSight replacement.  I searched the web and found some hacks that were supposed to work but they didn’t end up working for me. I have given up and just decided to use PhotoBooth for capturing video if I find it necessary. PhotoBooth allows you to switch cameras in the Camera Menu.

The Logicool camera has a Carl Zeiss Lens and doesn’t need any drivers. If you want to have the ability to control  brightness, contrast, and saturation you can load up CamTwist. The CamTwist Effects Menu has a Brightness effect which gives you the 3 controls.

The first Apple computer I ever owned was an LC 475. I bought it from the back of a Mac User magazine. I think it was one of those education models that was nicely discounted.

I totally missed the Apple II era due to the fact that they were expensive and my father bought us a Commodore 64 as our first personal computer, of course we also had an Atari 2600 at the time too.

My dad wasn’t really a gadget guy so we didn’t upgrade our technology very quickly at all and it took an act of the gods to get him to buy anything, lol. Though he had a mean record collection! I did have a neighbor that had an Apple II with the green monitor. I played Chopper Command (Choplifter???) as much as possible and a bunch of other games that I don’t remember, I hated the lame joystick though. Give me an Atari 2600 joystick any day of the week and I will pwn some noobs!!

Anyway back to the story. I remember I was working part time at a hospital on the evening shift when I ran across a copy of MacUser Magazine. I also worked with a girl that was studying graphic design and got on the discussion of Mac’s. She wasn’t really a fan girl or anything but she was a great artist and talked to me about the software she used and the things she did at school. As usually when I discover something new and interesting I had to find out more so I picked up a couple more magazines and before you know it I was opening the box to my new LC 475!! Mac OS 7 point whoever was a welcome site to my windows sore eyes. I also loved the way you dragged the disk into the trash and it automagically spit out the floppy.

I think the computer came with a golf program that my brother and I really got hooked on. We would have matches between each other just about every day. After the LC I had got my first Power PC Mac which was a 7200. Then for some reason I went back to the dark side for a few years and had windows PC’s or no computer at all. Though at university I would always go to the Mac Computer Lab if at all possible. When Steve Jobs came back to Apple and the iMac was released I came back as well. I picked up a iMac with the slot loaded DVD and fell back in love with the Mac. Once the OS X beta came out it was all over I never looked back to the old OS. Except for the lack of DVD play back initially I was sold. It was the best thing that could happen for us Mac users. We had a “real” OS!

Next there were iBooks, iMacs, Power Mac’s, and finally my current white plastic MacBook. I wont put iPods into this story but I have owned my share of those as well!

My next Mac with probably be a MacBook Pro with an i5 or i7 CPU if they every come out and an iPad too Or should I get an iMac and an iPad? Hmm….

Then you might want to have a look on YouTube especially the screencastsonline channel. I would also think that if you searched for “MacWorld 2010″ on YouTube and Twitter, you will find lots good stuff.

Here is a pretty cool item I ran into here in Japan. Its a little suction cup stand thing for your iPhone or iPod Touch. Of course it can be used for other phones like the Google Nexus One.  It cheap and “Just Works”.  I wouldn’t doubt that its available else where under a different name.

Found this video that shows how it works.
