Comment 589 for bug 1

I went to a Fry's store las weekend and the I asked a guy if "he" knew
if any webcam would work off the shelf, and he is like sorry dude --
You'll have to use whatever you have -- "I am like yea but I mean..."
sorry I can't help you.

I am like okkkkk. and I just got an HP but didn't work so I installed
windows in my laptop which I don't use very much and is the only way to
use it and Podcasts. --I haven't been able to hear "podcasts" directly
from like MIT.
