Yes, I love technology. But not as much as you, you see. But I still love technology, always and forever.

So someone with better technology, I need help.

I am looking into purchasing a LCD monitor like computer styled. I will be using this for my comp, but also want to make sure I can hook my PS3 up to it. I have to have a monitor that the PS3 is compatible with. It's a must can't get around it.

So, I think I found one but I'm not sure.

Here it is:

Can someone help me out with this? Will this monitor work? Other suggestions? Please?

I don't believe it will work as it doesn't have an HDMI input.

My buddy has this and has his 360 hooked up to it. Great reviews from NewEgg.

Also, I would try NewEgg for your purchases. Your original link from buy.com is $5.00 higher than Newegg, both free shipping. Newegg is also very highly regarded and said to have great customer support. I've never had to use their support, but when I built my computer, I purchased many parts through them, and they were very reasonable price wise, and came shipped with peanuts and more protective foam, bubble wrap, the whole 9 yards which other companies I've ordered from lacked.
