Yes, these were taken with the USB QX3+ Computer Microscope.
There are several reviews of the product online. Most are not good as I believe many thought this was a "real" microscope and have compaired it to one.
There are three things that I wish were better:
1. A more persice stage: samples move about as the stage is very shaky during focus and things move out of view. However, they can be bought back into view.
2. Fine Focus: Course is hard to adjust.
3. A better depth of field. It would be nice to fucus on more of the sample depth at 60X and 200X.
Other than that, at $55 shipped, its not a bad item to have if you like to look at things up close and take a photo of it. I believe the next option up costs $250 and from there $720 to several thousand dollars.
The QX3 Plus does not come with Macintosh Drivers. I am using a freeware program called miXscope 1.3 for Mac OS X. The company is suppose to sell a Mac OS 9 software package, but it costs more to get it. I do not know if there is a freeware program for Mac OS 9. Drivers and software for Windows is included.
Now, for my personal thoughts on the QX3 Plus:
I like it, it has given me the chance to view the carnivorous plant world in a new light. I have enjoyed using it. The camera does allow for creating movies and time lapse photography.
My next microscope purchase will probably be a stand alone microscope with 1000X magnification and an adapter for my digital camera.

Please note that there are two versions of the QX3. There is the original from Intel called the Intel Play QX3, and the Digital Blue QX3 Plus. Intel no longer sells the scope and it can only be found new as the Digital Blue QX3 Plus. There is not much difference, but the QX3 Plus has some improvements.
