Ok let me tackle this one everyone!!
The answer is yes. BUT it is VERY hard to do. The odds of it working are VERY small and it is VERY expensive. All in all it's not worth the financial cost and the slim chances of success. It is tantalizing but you will need a card to control it, it's not like you can just plug an LCD into a VGA port, it needs to plug into a special proprietary card than into the PC.
So for any practical person, even remotely the answer is no.
