I have the door/window sensors, and they work well. They are RF, so be
careful of the range. As far as cameras, I only use the wired ones,
Logitek currently, but my computer out in the garage is wireless and
very low-power, so it's not too bad. One thing I want to do is to hook
the computer to an appliance modules to power up when MH goes into
'armed' mode, and then send an ssh command to power off the computer
when it's not, and turn off the x10 modules shortly after. The new
BIOSes will let you set the action of the startup when power comes back.
