Alright, so here is a little Idea of mine. I have a useless laptop, with 18 huge cracks in the screen. So anyways, earlier today I saw a somewhat mod that some guy did. He made a LAN party score board. It consisted of 4 LCDs hooked up to a computer, and they displayed stats of players for any game you choose to program on. They did give the source coding, so if your game isn't compatible, you can program it in. So I was wondering if something similar was possible for PS3. I don't actually own a PS3 myself, but I'm most likely getting one soon *oh boy it's christmas* Now if I ever tried this I wouldn't see the need to have 4 monitors, thats a little over-kill. I would probably stick to a cheapo one. The other problem is, they still don't have a feature to display stats on computer, but supposedly with the release of PS3 Home (google it) it might be added. I think it would be a fun project, maybe I could code the software (try to) portion to look like a PS3's waves on the cross media bar. And just for the sake of imagination, why not have a popup when someone gets online or changes status or something along that line.

Ouch!!! Just found out the laptop's HDD failed. It's making a rattling noise, if it even starts spinning.
