Head-in first, see what that gives him, then decide if he needs to spend the
extra money..

Concepts from the consumer are not necessarily what is best for the
situation. I have heard of people actually wanting to install some sort of
projectile at the window to shoot the intruder upon entry. Result of eating
bad food before they go to bed at night, I would guess.

For who ever is involved if a plantiffs attorney chooses to invite everyone
to the picnic.

Than don't get involved in actual design. Sell him what he asks for and be
done with it. That way some attorney can't dub you as the designer,
consultant, engineer, or what ever he may try to title you to draw you and
your money into a case.

A good DVR, a Dedicated Micos for instance, with event recording will do
that. It will send you an email, call your cell, send you a text message,
send you a snap shot on your picture phone, has annuciation upon event, it
does alot. But then again, if he just wants to get the guards attention, a
cheap way out is to just fire his ass for not doing his job. That will get
his attention!
