It seems the uvc driver supports your Philips. The support for the webcam built into my TX1320US is a bit lacking, especially for flash applications. But I understand Adobe will change that with Flash Player version 10 (http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/flashplayer10/)! Have not tried the beta but maybe now would be a good time!

I mean are you a core developer that require the full suite? If not, you could install MS Visual Express: http://www.microsoft.com/Express/. If all you need is a helper with code complete, try Eclipse IDE for Ubuntu (if you are serious about dumping windows). Heck you can even use jedit: http://www.jedit.org/, which can be used on either Windows or Linux as long as you have JAVA installed. Let me know if this helps.

Great hardware specs but came pre-installed with Vista Home Premium. Since yesterday have been trying to install Visual Studio 2005. Complete frustration. I am seriously thinking to abandon Microsoft OS. I have a genuine XP CD, but am very skeptical to downgrade because of support issues later on. I would appreciate if some one could suggest options going forward. Is there an equivalent to MS Visual Studio in another OS. I used Unix and Linux long time ago around 1990. thanks in advance for any suggestions, prab Hi,
