If I were Lego and I was looking to avoid people pirating my software, I'd tie it to my own hardware! An awful lot of people have USB webcams. And the Lego software is quite clever, even if in its current form it cannot be used in conjunction with (...) (24 years ago, 9-Nov-00, to lugnet.robotics)

(...) You are right, the QuickCam Express and the Lego camera have identical vendor IDs (0x046d), but the Product IDs are different (0x0840 for the qce and 0x0850 for the Lego camera). The software can easily check for the right camera ;-) (...) I'm (...) (24 years ago, 10-Nov-00, to lugnet.robotics, lugnet.robotics.vc)
