I'm going to be moving away for a couple of years and I definitely don't want to have a big huge LCD with me (I'll be moving around a fair bit), but I'd like to be able to use my PS3 every now and then. I was just curious if there are any manufacturers that produce a laptop that included an HDMI input. (perhaps a bi-directional input/output port?)

I've never heard of such a thing, and can't seem to find anything on google.

A lot are HDMI output only, you'll have to make sure it allows HDMI input as well.

it is unlikely any such model exists outside of some prosumer niche units.

the best you can hope for is to find a usb capture card/plug and some sort of software to display the capture full screen. there will probably be some additional input lag from such a setup and that's assuming the ps3 recognizes the device as valid to output to.

Hey there, there are several alienwares with it.

EDIT: Yeah the M17X and M18X have an input and output.
