If anyone knows a source for basic information and/or a usenet group

I got the el-cheapo model from HFhttp://www.harborfreight.com/weatherproof-color-security-camera-with-...
orhttp://www.harborfreight.com/weatherproof-security-camera-with-night-....
Coupled with a video-input card ($17.00) and I have an adequate ability to
capture bedroom romps and the setup may be sufficient for your needs.http://www.directron.com/tvpcirc.html
The card comes with rudimentary video-editting software (cut/paste).
As I recall, at high resolution it burns up about 1 GB of diskspace per hour
(it's been a while since I HAD a bedroom romp). That's no biggie inasmuch as
40-Gig hard drives are as cheap as $10 on my local Craigslist.
NAH, HE WANTS THE HIGH TECH ONE WITH PAN/TILT & ZOOM THAT LOOKS LIKE A
ROCKET LAUNCHER.
