Logitech's [Alert camera system](http://www.engadget.com/tag/logitech,alert) has given security to Android, BlackBerry, iOS and Windows users alike, yet there's been a conspicuously Mac-shaped void in support. Logitech is plugging that hole with a native OS X version of its Alert Commander app. So long as Alert system owners are running [Snow Leopard](http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/26/snow-leopard-review/) or later, they'll have an Orwellian view of live and pre-recorded video feeds from as many as six of the [HomePlug](http://www.engadget.com/tag/HomePlug/)-connected cameras. The control extends to 16 motion-sensitive zones, digital zoom, backups and desktop notifications for when an intruder disturbs the peace. As the app itself is a free Mac App Store download, the only cost left is a recent camera array like the [Alert 750n](http://www.engadget.com/2012/05/09/logitech-alert-750n/) to keep track of home from a MacBook Air.
