Hi. I have a Powermac G4 and it is pretty old and definately could be replaced, but I cant afford a new computer right now. My daughter is about to get Japanese lessons via webcam from Japan. So we went out and bought a Macally webcam. It needs a 2.0 USB port to plug into. So...I have two, I had installed the pci card a while back and it never did work properly. It did intermittently. When I plugged the webcam into it, it is all static-y and when we tested it out last night, there was not only static audio but the video rolled green and pink. Obviously that isn't working for me. Is there an external USB 2.0 hub that I can get with an ac that can work for me? I am thinking if I have to plug it into a 1.0 USB port, it won't work, but what if I bought one with an ac adapter?
I found this one. Whadya think? Should I buy it? Will it work?
Thanks so much.
