Hello. I am limited to 10GB a month at home so I was thinking of taking my XB1 and laptop to the lobby at college (always empty so no one to wonder some weirdo has his Xbox there) and downloading some games. Is it possible to connect the two and use my laptop for the display? I've searched online and found something called EasyCap that works for 360, but the XB1 doesn't come with a component cable, so I don't know how I would even connect it. Is there a way? Thanks.

 
Not any obvious way I can see.  You would need a HDMI in on your laptop for that to work, as I can't see any HDMI converters working to hook the XB1 to your laptop.

Thanks shrike. That's pretty much what I thought. I might look for an empty classroom with a tv. I didn't want to use any of their equipment, but I'll ask first.
