How do I connect my laptop to my TV using my PS3?

Question

I see a lot of questions about using a laptop monitor to play the PS3, but I actually want to go the other way. I want to display my laptop on the TV by running it through my PS3. Is this even possible?

if so, how would I do it? Essentially I want to be able to open and edit an Excel file while viewing it on my TV, and thought there may be a way to do this with the PS3. Any help or ideas??? THANKS!

Answer 1

Very interesting question. I do not believe there to be a way to do this, though I have been wrong before. I will keep my eye on this as I am very interested to see if there is something I am missing.

Your laptop is very likely to have S-Video Input, You just need to buy a cable like this one from newegg http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.as...

Answer 3

you dont need the ps3, you just need an lcd tv(because they have the pc input spots) and the computer cable for screen display(with blue on it). sorry, i cant remember the name:( ive tried it before, and its very nice :D

Answer 4

No, you can't use the PS3. Try going straight from the laptop to the TV. Depends on the TV of course.
