Just wondering if anyone knows of products that will let me use my PS2 on my Laptop, if anyone knows of something that can be used as a universal hookup for other systems too, that would be helpfull. I mainly want to do this cause i'm headed back to the desert again, and dont want to buy a TV while i'm there, and cause i would like to use it in transit also.

With a big box pc you can get a video capture/tv PCI card, but since laptops can't be upgraded with such things I very much doubt there is a way to do it.

What you can do instead is download a PS2 emulator for your laptop which will play PS2 games. There are also some great USB adaptors about to plug your PS2 joypad into your laptop.

There are TV cards solutions with optional video-in inputs available on the market, for the laptop. Most of them are connected via USB and some via PCMCIA. It should do the trick for you.

Cheers.
