    Wanting to use my G73JH's screen for console gaming, and found only a single product which would allow this (I'm assuming onboard HDMI & VGA ports are output only):

    Gigabyte USB U8300 Hybrid TV Tuner [U8300] - $65.00 : PC Case Gear

    Is this what i would want to connect my 360/Wii to my laptop and play using the screen? Are there any other products similar or better than this? Anyone ever used one of these before?

    //Edit: Also, would something like this http://www.austin.net.au/ProductList/ProductDetail/tabid/104/ProductCode/VC-MYiGrabber/Default.aspx or this http://www.austin.net.au/ProductLis.../104/Default.aspx?ProductCode=VC-COMP-C200+++ work, or are those for a completely different purpose?
