Rating:  - Useless
I bought this a while back as it states it works on mac mini. It does, but it involves downloading external drivers that take a long time to find on your own, and even then it only works on one or two programs. None of these are skype. In fact, it is so non-compatible with skype that every time \i try to make a call with it plugged in, skype crashes.

Rating:  - Not a great buy for a Mac
This is a cheap product and it feels it and the picture quality is bad and the software for it is absolutely minimal and only works for Skype. It won't work with all the other built in apps that use a webcam unless you purchase additional software.

Rating: - Okay Skype, nothing else though.
Picture is okay. Run on vista the software in the box didn't work. downloaded the driver from the website and it worked fine. Only in Skype though. All other video capture software refused to recognise it. I could record video but NOT sound on to my PC, either from the camera's built in mic or an aditional mic. Useless. Its cheap looking in the box and even cheaper in performance. Go elsewhere, please.
Rating:  - No Mac Mic
Works fine on a Mac (Mac OS 10.4.11) except that the microphone doesn't work. There's a note on Sogatel's website that says the microphone is not compatible with Macs.
Fortunately I don't want to use the microphone.
I got it up and running in a moment once I'd visited the Sogatel website and downloaded the drivers - there are no Mac drivers in the box but there's a leaflet telling you where to get them. Configuring it to run with Skype seemed simple - though you do need to quit ... Read More
Rating:  - Mac Webcam
My first Mac webcam so I dont have a lot to compare to; picture quality is very good and it was easy to install. All round very pleased. Very fast delivery too.
