    I bought a new x201 and am playing around with it. However, I can't seem to find any options to open the webcam to record myself. Anyone know how/where I can access this function? Thanks!

    And yes I did buy the camera/webcam, its clearly visible under the LED light :D

    more like you don't have the software to utilise this webcam, try something like yawcam.
