We use an Intel iMac w/a built in camera. To record, we use SnapZ Pro
($69) to record the video and iChat to capture the participant's face.
OS X has built in screen sharing now, so if the participant is on OS
X, we put them on OS X and stream to another machine using remoting.
If they're on Windows, we fire up Parallels, run Windows and the built
in screen sharing in OS X still works to stream to the other machine.
This is not only an inexpensive model, but allows us to reliably test
both Mac and Windows participants.

Can someone please recommend the basics required to set up a

figure out the equipment that I could possibly need?
Thanks,

In theory, theory and practice are the same.
In practice, they are not.
