Most notebook computers still do not come equipped with an integrated webcam, so the release of Microsoft's LifeCam NX-6000 comes in a timely manner. Although it can be used on a desktop PC, this new 2 megapixel webcam works especially well with notebooks. Features include a 3x digital zoom, a built-in microphone, and a wide angle lens. As with newer Microsoft peripherals, the LifeCam NX-6000 has been optimized for use with Windows Live Messenger. You can even capture still pictures in 7.6 megapixel glory. Overall, the NX-6000 is a sleek-looking webcam that goes about its business in a very professional manner according to its specifications.
