Could this be the case? Could CCTV cameras be a more cost effective solution as compared to IP cameras even in the heart of the Silicon Valley?

So if you have ever wondered if IP security cameras are all that and a bag of chips, or if perhaps they are just another over hyped, over priced, and often under performing solution, to a problem that many people are eager to believe can be solved with a new technology, then this article subtitled “How CCTV Can Be Better Than IP Even In Silicon Valley” will be worth your time.
