   Just get the cheap Ezonics USB webcam that was free after rebates all 
the time.  May have to get it on Ebay now, not sure if it's still made. 
  Break the stop for focusing and you can easily inspect PCBs etc. 
Thought about it for drilling, but it's really hardly worth the effort. 
  Design your boards well, bring the vias out a bit from the chips, and 
you really shouldn't have much of anything that's beyond a even a crude 
CNC's capabilities.  I do small stuff yet still haven't seen any real 
useful NEED for super accuracy for the drilling.
