Relatively cheap (but cumbersome) way to use laptop screen's

[The_Codstr]

So this is very much lateral thinking, but if you plan to use a laptop screen for portable's then why not just leave the main MoBo of the laptop and attach a capture card to it?

This will make the screen accept composite video, but obviously its not really suited for portable's (Having to boot the thing everytime it runs out of battery!) But for using it for 360/PS3 laptop's then you cant go wrong (Far cheaper than buying a whole new screen, and with the laptop running from the one power supply, just keep the laptop running and there should be no problems)

There is noticable lag in any USB capture card, even PCI cards as well.
