Media Center PC + Home Surveillance Monitoring System
The SecurGen IDVR is a media PC designed to manage all your entertainment needs, but it can also act as a surveillance monitoring system, integrating the control of up to 8 surveillance cameras in your home (I assume that's for the outside grounds as well as the inside). Although many people still get a little frazzled at the idea of computers controlling the home, it's nice to see someone making systems that are designed to do useful things along with entertaining.
For more information on the system, check out this post at http://www.coolest-gadgets.com/20051126/securhome-integrates-home-security-and-digital-hub/

This is perfect for the DIY kind of person.
The thing is that even affordable systems like this really work.
In the last few months I have seen video footage on TV of burglaries in progress with beautifully clear video of the criminals.
These have been used to ID suspects.
