Looking down the thread, probably not what you want to hear since it
runs on Windows, and it's not an "appliance", more DIY, however

Is "free" and works really well. Feature list is everything you'd expect
from a surveillance system.
We use cheap (<£40) IP camera's like

in our DC. However, with this, the chose is yours since the list of
supported cameras is as long as your arm.
We have this running on a very old core duo 2 PC, with 2 GB of ram (Win
7) ; with 8 cameras and motion detect running. Works a treat, and has
done for 2 yrs+
Only downside is you need a subscription if you want to monitor outside
your LAN, but I don't see that requirement from you.
