    Is there a way that I can use my aluminum unibody MacBook display to connect my PS3? I already have a Mini DisplayPort to HDMI Adapter; but is there an app or plug-in that will let me do this.

    The displayport is only for pushing video OUT of the macbook and onto an external display NOT for pushing a video signal into the MacBook.


    BUT

    You can get a device like the elgato eyetv or some other usb video capture device to get the video from your PS3 onto the display of the MacBook. If you shop for one make sure it has a game or zero-latency mode. Most capture cards have a slight lag to them that will make for an unbearable gaming experience.
