    These include the

      Creative Labs WebCam 3 (*** see note about the OV511+ below ***)
      D-Link DSB-C300
      Puretek PT-6007

    The program was written by Peter Housel <housel@acm.org) and
    is heavily based on the Linux OV511 driver from http://alpha.dyndns.org/ov511/

    Notes On The OV511+
    -------------------
    Josh Elsasser <jre@vineyard.net> has added support for OV511+ cameras.
    Older Creative WebCam 3's use the OV511 but newer ones use the OV511+
