Tired of Your Netbook? Turn It Into a Pet Cam

After eight months, Gadget Lab's Charlie Sorrel still adores his Hackintosh netbook. Now that he and his Crapintosh have traversed their rough patch, Charlie make believes he's P Diddy by hosting decadent parties, passing the netbook around to guests to use it as a wireless music player. I'm glad he's finally caught up to the year 2000, but I've found a more clever use for my netbook Hackintosh, which I deemed an impractical nuisance after six months of quick wear and tear. One major disadvantage: The audio in the webcam doesn't work with the hacked version of Mac OS X, for which there is no fix, meaning all I can do is see, not hear, the kitten.
