The latest Mac Minis use about 85 W and are super quiet. That quickly changed my thinking and I decided that since my Mac Mini that acts as my media center runs most of the time (6 am to 11 pm), I was probably better off having it run 24 hours a day and have it handle the recording. The most common theme among reviews on systems was that the fans in the DVRs was noisy and that the boxes were power hogs.

When I started investigating camera systems, the reviews on full featured systems were so mixed that I didn’t know what to believe and what not to believe.

Some people may think I’m a bit paranoid, but I think that knowing who is around my property while it is being remodeling as well as down the line knowing if solicitors come to the door or a package gets dropped off is invaluable. I never got around to installing cameras and it is probably best that I didn’t as the technology has gotten so much better, that the quality of cameras and systems from just a few years ago doesn’t compare with what we have today. However, neighborhood kids did toilet paper our house once and someone (or a group of individuals) graffitied a number of houses including ours with anti-Semitic words and symbols. We all know that not every student is perfect and we wouldn’t be surprised if a student toilet papered our house. In our last house, I considered adding security cameras as my wife was a teacher in the area and some of the students knew where she lived.
