My daughter has the world's cutest toddlers and a PC. I, grand-dad, live 300
miles away and have a MacBook Pro with the built-in camera. So you now
understand my subject topic!

I'm new to the video chat stuff, so I'd appreciate help with what she could
use and I could use and us both see/hear each other. (She mentioned that She
has Skype, but Skype's Mac version does not yet support video.) I'm thinking
that I can't use iChat for this, but if I'm wrong let me know.

The Windows AIM client does video/audio chat and you use iChat.
Some people have problems making this work, but I have managed several
video conferences with windows users.
