Hey guys. I'm getting a new computer tomorrow, and it has an HDMI port in it.

I was wondering if there's any setup anybody knows of that can make the ps3 or xbox play on the laptop screen by connecting them through an HDMI port? If it's possible, because it sound like something that would work. :roll:

Thanks in advance.

Yeah it's not possible through the hdmi port. But you can get a USB TV Tuner. Just make sure it can support high definition TV (HD) and windows media center if you have vista, it gives a better image quality than most of the provided tuner software.
