What's the cheapest way for me to record activity in my front yard?

I have a spare laptop I could use, I don't want to be able to view the videos online, I can aim a camera out my front window. I'd just like to see what's happening during the day when I'm not around. Apparently I have a pet vandal and I'd like to know who it is, but it would really irk me to have to spend a lot of money because of this creep. Got any simple suggestions on how to make this happen?

Someone has been messing with my front garden. It started small years ago, with a few branches snapped that overhang the fence, but it's been slowly escalating, branches broken well into my yard, lawn signs kicked over, and recently they have gone too far. A few weeks ago they went all over the yard and sawed off all the low branches on one tree, cut down a sapling, and left the discarded branches on the lawn. Most of the people in my neighborhood are really nice, so I'd hate to accuse anyone falsely, but I'd really like to politely tell whoever has been doing this to stay the hell off my property. I imagine that I could aim a camera out the window, capture the images on the laptop, and review the video whenever I notice something has been disturbed. So, what hardware/software should I use?
