First off, it would be a smart idea to generally describe your idea in the topic title so that it brings in people who would know.
Secondly, I swear this question's been asked to death around here.
For laptops, you'll need at video capture card. The cheaper ones only allow composite cables, which have a lower resolution AKA worse video quality.
So far the only ones I've seen that allow component or anything like that cost a fortune so imo unless you have a legit reason(recording videos for reviews or so official purpose) don't bother.

hi,

You can connect ur laptop and PS3 to your monitor if your monitor has at least 2 inputs (one of them should be a DVI or HDMI) and your monitor is HDCP enabled.

You just need a DVI to HDMI cable (if your monitor only has DVI) or HDMI cable (if your monitor has HDMI).

Hope this helps a bit, btw it is good if you search before you post, because usually some people may have already asked the same question.

P.S Superman is invincible but not invisible, hence you can see him tongue.gif

Cheers
