scorpion 0 Posted January 14, 2008 There are too many variables to answer your question. Will this be a "budget" project, or would this project be considered "Security is of the Essence! Do you have a Million dollars cash under your mattress, or are you just protecting your home entertainment equipment? Why do you want to hook everything up to a computer? For an alternative would a stand alone DVR be an option? What are the specs on the computer, and what size hard drive does it have. Do you want inexpensive bullet cameras that use Infra red, or would prefer expensive true day/night cameras?
