    For Msn you can with aMsn I think. But if I need to I just boot up parallels in coherence mode. Works better IMO.

    That's a bummer. I was still hoping I could video conference with my g/f while she was away for conferences.

    With aMSN it will work though? She uses MSN so that could work out still just fine.

    I believe the new Yahoo lets you chat with MSN users. I know the camera for yahoo works, but not sure about when your talking to someone with MSN.
