I have 2 extra 30" Cinema Displays in my place since I switched over to Lacie Monitors for my color workflow, I want to sell one and keep the other if I can use it on the PS3. I received a second PS3 for Christmas and would like to set up the 30" display with the PS3 in the client waiting area. I was just wondering if this is possible at all? I know I can just sell the monitors and buy a tv but I'd like to keep at least one as a spare just in case.

Thanks
 
It is definitely possible, but bear in mind that the maximum resolution for a single Link DVI signal is 1280x800 on a 30" Cinema.
 
I suggest selling both ACD and get a TV. The resolution will be very limited on the ACD and it will appear stretched vertically as the ACD has no scaler.

You have two 30"?

I just got a refurbished 30" and I don't know if it is OK??
Could you help me??
Do you calibrate your monitors?
I want to know what the Native kelvin is on yours?
When I calibrate using an eye1 D2 set to 6500K, 2.2 gamma, 120 LUM.s
I have a bit of trouble getting a good calibration.
When I do get a good one, and compare an album that was printed with the original files they have a reddish tint, skin colors. it comes back with the 6500K that I entered.
Now if I enter Native temp into the program and run the calibration it It comes back saying white point, temp, is 11K .. that's nuts. Could my screen be out of wack?
I need to know because I shoot weddings and need good calibration that I can trust.
