Can't hurt to ask...

This falls under the "Yeah, right" category, but you never know until you
ask.

What would be involved with having a MetaCard stack talk to a digital
camera?

(Stop laughing.)

In theory, could a stack communicate via USB with a camera, and control it,
as in tell it to take a picture, then download the picture to the hard
drive...

It's not like I need this feature, and I have no idea how it would be done.
I'm just curious.  The truth is that we have an ID badge setup with a
digital camera and a Windows PC, and the included software is the worst
piece of crap I've EVER seen.  Take every mistake every Windows programmer
has ever made and put it into a program, and you've got this one.  I'd love
to do something better.  But I'll understand if it isn't possible.
