I am running on PC at the moment or test while I wait for my RPi+ to arrive Friday

Theres a fair chance you could make the webcam work, most laptop webcams are USB standard (no point in reinventing the wheel for something like a webcam) but will more than likely have different connectors to fit inside the cramped laptop lid.

Since I have no idea how to use a breadboard I should probably stay away from a amplifier board.. I sure hope I learn this stuff sometime haha.

If you used a flatscreen monitor, could you not take the back off and make a new back panel to house the Pi etcetera ? If it was a monitor then I believe that will be fine since it connects direct to VGA, DVI, or HDMI. The problem I am having is mine is a laptop screen which does not connect throug...
