I also prefer cameras to an alarm. Alarm will tell the authorities WHEN someone broke in. At least the camera will show them WHO broke in. And how.

I don't have an alarm. If someone is in front of my house I will know before they ever get up the drive. If they made it to the front door i usually already have eyes on them. Unless I know it's the UPS or FedEx guy dropping off more lead at my door.
