What's your budget, and your expectations?
Sure, you can get some cheap cams that won't show much. You can use something like teamviewer.com to remotely log in to the laptop.
Or, you can spend a few more bucks on something a little better, get remote access, etc.
Lorex and Foscam are popular "consumer" brands that are pretty basic, but solid.
