Hi, I want to buy a Web Cam. I want a linux compatible one. Because i am going to use it primarly under Linux but also in Windows. I was thinking into buying a Logitech one, because i have always heard good things about Logiteck peripherals. But i have no idea about models, prices. Can you recommend me any model or any web page about Webcams? Which would you choose and how much does it cost? Thanks in advanced for your feedback.

Read the documentation and see whether your camera is supported.
