Depending on the Specification of Jon PC!, He could just attatch a Web Cam to 
either his serial or USB Port!, the only software he needs in Microsoft 
Netmeeting, (This is required at both ends)! and that is it.

You will need at least a P166, with 64Mb Memory in for this to work I tried it 
about 18 months 
ago by borrowing my mates Web Camera, I was using a P200MMX with 64Mb and that 
worked fine, 
the video was a little slow but worked O.K!

So there is that suggestion, the only thing to watch is the cost of the Phone 
Calls, in the UK
the phone charges are #0.01 per minute on BT at Weekends!, you would have this 
charge at both 
ends!

You can connect your video camera but it's more difficult to do it this way!
