If you are interested in the recommended system specifications for the USB terminal, especially if you want to hook up the camera as a webcam, then check out the photo below. Basically, as long as you’re running Win 2000/XP/2003 or Mac OS 9.0 or later, you’re fine. Its internal memory and/or SD card is recognized as a removable storage drive so you can work with it as you would with a regular USB stick.

According to the documentation, the “web cam” mode is not supported for Windows Vista and Mac. I personally couldn’t test it myself. It works fine with both XP and 2003.
