TCP/IP cameras would work with any OS, most just FTP or whatever the 
pictures to a webserver you provide, or they run their own server and 
you can wget the pics off them.   but I've never seen any IP cameras I'd 
call really cheap.   Panasonic makes a nice line of them, some even have 
remote pan/zoom via a http interface.
