    Are there ANY 13.3 inch or smaller laptops/netbooks with a really good webcam to match the quality of the 'early' Advent 4211 I just sold?Specifically motion blur/low fps is bad in any later 4211/Winds/NC10 I have tried .Any help appreciated as 'herself' is not pleased that her 'Christmas present' is inferior to her 'old' 4211.Just try 'wave' your hand and see if you get blurring/ghosting .Thanks!

    Macbooks?

    Sonys? Dells? They all have decent webcams.
    I know my Macbook Pro has a crystal clear webcam with great colour and zero ghosting.

    If a quality webcam is a must, why not buy a stand alone webcam? Imho, built in cameras are never going to be the greatest.

    As I mentioned in the NC10 thread, the webcam is poor in bad lighting conditions giving low FPS which could be mistaken for blur.
    The integrated webcam was 10X better when I turned on an overhead light or lamp,etc in the background or opened a window to let natural light in.
