want to get my ps2 and tv running of my tft screen/laptop so that i dont have lots of equipment at uni and so that i dont have to fork out £200 on a new lcd tv!

have found these:

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/XGA-VGA-TV-BOX-Watching-TV-and-Play-Video-Game-on-TFT_W0QQitemZ8210861215QQcategoryZ11319QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Super-Vga-Box_W0QQitemZ8211512858QQcategoryZ11319QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

but not sure whether the picture will be bollocks running on a pc screen rather than tv screen?!

Use the remote control that comes with the box in the 1st link?

it will be just as good as a TV, IF NOT BETTER cos a PC screen has a higher resolution to a TV... so providing you blug an arial lead into it and not one of those coat hanger portable TV things then compaired to a TV with the same arial lead it should be alot better.
