The second cheapest camera said it did interpolated 640x480, but that cheapest one didn't mention interpolation.
My iSight is 640x480, but it does a bunch of other stuff I'm assuming you can't get for $5.99. Yet.
This will make shopping interesting.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I found a really reasonably priced Toshiba notebook over at Amazon, but I have a few qualms about it. It's refurbished (not an issue for me), and the company that is selling it through Amazon's Marketplace has a relatively complete seller's profile with over 1000 recent feedbacks and a customer service line. Problem is that the website link goes to a site that seems to have only one computer in stock (the one I'm interested in), and the customer service line is "currently unavailable," with the message saying to send e-mail with any tech support questions. This is lighting up "company might be folding tomorrow!!" lights in my head.
Should I go for it, or look for something potentially more reliable?

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!
Acer's are kind of low rent, and there's no value for how often they break down.

HP?
I can't vouch for the reliability of the brands. I sort of like that first Toshiba though.
The HP has Vista Home Premium rather than Home Basic. I think that means more media features and cooler looking, but I'm not really sure.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

That's right. I don't know if their laptops are any good though.
