best projector with hdmi image

Elyahu J

I want to use my laptop screen as a projector through hdmi. I don't mean putting my desktop on another screen. I mean putting a screen (ex: An Xbox) output to be shown on my laptop screen. If there is a way please tell me.
Specs: Alienware M15x Laptop with a Nvidia GeForce GT 240M.
Please tell me why it would work or why not please!
I do not want a simple yes or no answer!

How would it be if i connected my PS3 to a DLP Projector via a HDMI port?

Would the clarity of the game play and movies reduce if i connected my Playstation3 Console to an Infocus IN72 DLP projector via a HDMI port?

Answer
DLP displays tend to be not very good for gaming, as they can introduce a noticeable lag between receiving the video signal, and displaying it. Rhythm games, such as Rock Band or Guitar Hero, may very well be unplayable (unless they have a "HDTV calibration" setting in their options, but not all games do that). I'm unsure about whether or not that would apply to the projector you specified, but as a rule, DLP and Plasma displays aren't as good for gaming as LCD displays.

Good projectors that are ideal for gaming tend to cost over $1000 (for a 720p/1080i-capable projector, a 1080p projector would probably cost considerably more).
