Connecting PS3 To Laptop? Please Help!

Well I have recently purchased a PS3 and I have just noticed that my Laptop ( Toshiba ) has an S Video slot on the back. Does this mean that I can connect my PS3 to my Laptop with a cable like this? - http://www.woolworths.co.uk/web/jsp/product/index.jsp?pid=50867243

Then would I be able to display my PS3 on my laptop screen just like a TV? Thanks!

Laptops will usually offer S-Video and/or VGA.

These are NOT Inputs. These are OUTPUTS. Therefore it is impossible to hook anything other than a monitor to one of those ports and expect it to do anthing.

There is an hdmi input pcie card made by Blackmagic. It costs $200. To use it with your laptop, you will need a magma(?) external pcie enclosure, which goes for like $500. Its possible, but extrememly stupid. Blackmagic currently has no plans for an expresscard version.mbrockway

So for $700 + tax your set?

Awesome.

The hell with putting that towards a plasma. I'll use my 15" monitor like a moron. ;)
