I'm not aware of laptops that can display the output from an external device on its own screen.

I've never seen a laptop with a video input either. It's probably possible, but not possible without taking the laptop apart.

Well, you could get an external video capture card with realtime playback, this one claims to allow viedogame play on your laptop. For that $40 price, don't expect the best picture quality, the real good capture cards, like high-grade video editing, eaisly cost upwards of $80.

I didn't know they had things like that. Too bad you can't test drive it before you buy it.
