    Was wondering if anyone utilizes easy cap to run their game console on G73 if so how is it working out for you?

    Any tweak's that should be done to get the most out of using this usb dongle?

    I for one have a Ps3 and a Xbox360. Currently my tv is in the master bedroom where I would like it to stay and my Girl's (laptop's) are in my kick back office where I spend most of my time doing either paper work or using my pc's (laptop's) for work or recreational purposes and would like to keep it that way.

    So I decided I wanted to move my consoles out of my bedroom into my office (since I am a grown man already and my girlfriend thinks having all these consoles in my bedroom is kind of High Schoolish).

    What's your thought's lol

    Yeah, keep the consoles on a big screen. I have a 55" in the living room which now a days you can get cheap enough and use Xbox360 on that. I have 47" wall mounted in the bedroom. Perhaps you need to get that wall mounted TV for your office? ;)

    Lol look it up it's basically a external usb hardware mod to turn your Desktop/Laptop monitor into a tv to use with your Ps3/Xbox360

    I like your comments guy's.

    I might cop a 42 inch soon for my office but in the mean time I have to utilizes what I have for now until I get all thing's sorted out

    See she pay's half with me so I think she has a voice in this opinion but good looks with the advice haha.

    EzCap is not really suited for this generations consoles that are HD. It would be good for the older SD consoles though. But the G73 can easily run an emulator for most of those :D

    make the office in to a mini home theater, make the best of the situation, get some surround sound, a bigger tv, and bring em all in there. Then again thats an office space which can puish you away from doing work and more play. So maybe make the living room into a home theater room then .
