which can be a serious issue for your 2nd priority, if not the 1st. And unless your office is arranged such that cameras are central and pointing outward from one location, be watchful of your extension lengths (not sure if a higher-powered usb hub will help there).
Sounds like fun, keep us updated :)

Just got a 'request' that I put in cameras in 4 areas of our office, the
first priority is so that our receptionist can find people to receive
phone calls, the 2nd priority for security.
I'm thinking that I can get away with those cheapo webcams, run the 4 of
them into a usb hub and into a computer for viewing. (?)
It would probably be good to just have a monitor dedicated to showing
the output of the 4 cameras.
Recording all this video can come later...
Can I do this on the cheap like this or am I gonna have to pony up some
real $$$ to make it happen?
