Which one, which one

What do you think? I need a webcam that’s compatible with my Mac. There are two choices as far as I’m concerned.

Logitech QuickCam Pro 3000: This one is on sale for $70 at Staples, and it looks like a great camera. I can supposedly get a driver for free for it, but if that doesn’t work I can get one for $20. OS X compatibility is a b*tch.

Hawking Tech DC320: $40 at buy.com, and it functions as both a digital camera and a webcam. That’s cool since I could take it around with me instead of my Olympus when I’m walking to class or other places. I have to pay $10 for it, though, and I’m not sure how the quality is compared to the Logitech. I like Logitech stuff, but if this is better for a lower price, I think I should go for this one.

What would you do? Let me know.

Whoops, I meant I have to pay $10 extra for the driver for the DC320. :)
