How do you hook up a webcam?

If I hook up a laptop with a webcam to an external monitor without one, can i use the webcam on the laptop?

  • I have a macbook pro 13 inch (the new one with a webcam) and I was wondering if I get an external monitor without a webcam and hook it up to the laptop with a webcam, could I use the webcam on the laptop as the external monitor is plugged into the laptop? If not, are there any good, cheap webcams out there anyone knows of? Are there any good monitors about 20 inches with a webcam that are at a reasonable price? Thanks

  • Answer:

    Yes you can use both. As far as the computer is concerned they are two different devices. Turning the built-in monitor off will have no effect on the webcam whatsoever.
