Residential video surveillance system

Okay and update: I talked to friend that sells these and installs them (I couldn't afford him LOL) and he gave me a few pointers. I decided and ordered the one that best buy has, it's the Swann - 8-Channel, 8-Camera Indoor/Outdoor Professional Security System
Model:SWDVK-840008 it has 8 channel D1 recording and some of the cheaper ones only allow D1 on one channel, probably overkill but what the heck. The cameras are also 600 TVL which should be pretty clear from all the reading I did. thanks for the input. It is supposed to be delivered today so after about a month maybe I will have figured out how to install it and get it running.

Oh yeah, it was $749.00 at BestBuy but on backorder there and everywhere else, found it at BrandSmart.com and they had it for $649.00 on the web with free shipping, I called them to make sure it wasn't on backorder and they had it in stock, the lady told me that it was $629.00, so I asked her if that was free shipping too and she said no, but she would add it. Not too bad i didn't think.
