no replies?
I don't know but I toss some stuff out here.
Is it going to be dedicated? Maybe you could get a Linux variant to install on the hardware? It might be a challenge to get the video streams working. My guess is you could get some usb cameras to work or ip cameras working? I don't know if a video capture card will work, ask the guys at bluecherry.net
Best of Luck,

What kind of cameras? What kind of mini? If it's an intel core duo, and relatively few cameras, you can probably run ZM in VMWare or Parallels with minimal performance hit.
thx for reply

sorry for the late response.. been out on a trip.
it is a mac mini with intel core duo chip set (latest version).
i have a logitech orbit and a few other logitech camera.. i have been wondering with the idea of running with vmware fusion.. but thought people say i will run into problem.
i am thinking 2-3 usb camera at most..
i will give it a try for sure
