Depends. Does it have DVI? If so, you might well be okay, particularly if
you can find out what the native res is (I think most are 1024).

Personally, I'd buy a decent TFT (with DVI) that costs about the same and
then spend a little extra on a TV card for the PC. You can get a decent
1280x1024 TFT with DVI for about the same as I've seen those TFT TVs go for
(in my country, at least).
