I have followed the tutorial at the following site to make a camera, but it doesn't work. When I play the map all I see on the monitor is dev_monitor - but I want an acual monitor.

Can someone direct or tell me how to make a camera and monitor work.

Now, if I want to make the camera able to be picked up, what do I do. I know that the camera can have a parent value, but the info_camera_link can't have a parent value. What do I do?

Parent the camera with a func_physbox or prop_physics.

I just said I know how to parent the camera, but what do I do with the info_camera_link? Do I just leave it and it would move anyway?

The info_camera_link does not need to move, it just tells the TV which camera to display.

To make a tv that you can move:
Make a prop_physics and name it
set the model as the tv with no screen(Glass)
Make a brush that covers the tv screen, then make it func_brush, name it, set parent to the name of the prop_physics, and give the front face the tvmonitor texture as described in the tutorial.
then make a info_camera_link set its destination brush to the name of the func_brush, of course you have to make a camera like in the tutorial.
Set the camera_link to the camera, i cant check if that works now cus its late and im tired but i hope it will give you the idea
