yes if you have a hdmi and have an laptop which has an either out or input port for the hdmi then it can be used with another device. However it is not able to do this if both the devices are out or both are in.

To play your PS3 on your Dell laptop using HDMI, you need to ensure that the laptop's HDMI port is an input, which is rare as most HDMI ports on laptops are outputs. If your laptop does support HDMI input, connect the PS3 to the laptop using an HDMI cable, then switch the laptop's display settings to the HDMI source. If your laptop does not support HDMI input, you'll need to use a capture card or an external monitor instead.

Will an HDMI cable hook up an xbox to a laptop screen?

No, the HDMI jack on the laptop is output only. You may use it to project your laptop screen on other devices such as monitors and TVs. In order to get other devices to be projected on your laptop screen you need a video card with video IN capabilities. I guess you can buy a cheep monitor an then use the HDMI port to hook up the xbox... or buy a TV. No. Laptops cannot be linked to.


Is it possible to watch films from a laptop on a tv using a USB to HDMI cable?

Your laptop should either have an HDMI port or a VGA port for using an external monitor. Once established which port your laptop has you will need either an HDMI to HDMI or VGA to HDMI cable to connect to your TV. The picture quality should not be affected by either as you will be using the laptop's inbuilt graphics and all you are doing is changing the visual display from screen to TV, which should be simply done by pressing the correct function key for external display once your cable is connected.
