Down at SLSD they got some cheap-o network attached cameras to dissuade vandalism and theft in one of the engineering tech rooms. They worked really well, did recording out of the box, and the whole kit with a couple cameras was only a few hundred dollars. I think they got them from Tiger Direct. I'll contact the teacher who was directly involvded in it and if he can recall more details I'll send them along to you.

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? -- Matthew S.
