You can get a display on that screen
IF you can output composite video from the PC or convert the VGA signal to composite. image quality will suffer and you won't be able to control the PC w/ the touchscreen.

My second question is whats the cheapest setup i can go with?
do you have computer hardware lying around that you can use? If so, that's the cheapest way to go, by far.
Not everyone is that sort of geek, though.
