Default Best way to connect MacBook to PS3?
Hey guys, I know I know, apple sucks, macbook sucks lol; but it's better than nothing. (my dad bought it thinking it was the hip thing to do, so now I just use it for school =P)
Anyway I was wondering if there was anyway of streaming media from the macbook to my PS3 the same way I do with my main PC.
thanks!

Is it running OSX or Windows? If Windows, then you can get PS3 Media Server for free and use that. If OSX, then you're screwd fanboy.

30 day trial to see if you like it or not, it has a mac, hell it even has NAS versions even it. I know it works for my 360, it should for the PS3 but you never know. Just click on this link, download the trial and see if it works for you. If it does buy a license and you're golden. Access media using your computer, gaming console, A/V system, NAS or DMA
