My feelings exactly, if you want to try it just to say you did it, but be prepared for the "Dr. Phil Dope Slap", in the form of "What were you THINKING?" coming out from everyone who knows you halfway through the project. Even if you were to get the parts to work, they would have to stay in the original TS chassis in order to be stable on the desktop. The proprietary connectors on the board would have to be identified as to signals and grounds, power, etc.,then transposed to a Dr. Frankenstein'ed VGA or DVI cable and connector for the PC side of things. If the rest of the machine is smoked by a lightning strike that the guy selling it on ebay DIDN'T tell you about, how long could you expect it to work? Wait a few years for the price to come down, as Win7 gains market share over XP if it doesn't end up a dud like Vista, and get a shiny new touch screen monitor with drivers and a warranty.
Just my 2 cents worth.

That girl has talent, experience, skill, and a lot of knowledge of what she is doing. She's not going on forums asking theoretical questions about things that have much easier and cheaper solutions. Someone who has those kind of talents just does it and tells others afterward about the project. Most people see it, say wow, and 99% don't want to try it. Doing one off projects like the ones she does are really not practical. They are 'PC Modding' to the extreme, and require more than the average PC skills, often adding sheet metal fabrication expertise, molding and plastics work, welding, an electrical and electronics background, HVAC for cooling the way overclocked machines, and other skill sets that support the fabrication and manufacture of the types of mods she and a small handful of others on the web have the time, knowledge, skills, money, tools, and patience to do. Most of us here are still getting used to a new machine that still has "version 1.x syndrome", and people are asking how to tear it apart and make parts of it work with a Homebuilt/Dell/E-Machine. Just my opinion, but maybe the extreme modders forums would be a better place to get that kind of info. Just as an example of the futility of this project, unless you know how to cut sheet metal, mold ABS plastic, and seamlessly strain relieve the vga in harness, your hybrid monitor is going to look like Kr@p...
What will you do if it works and you realize that you don't really like smudges on your glossy screen, and mousing is still the best way to compute? Seems like an awful lot of time wasted. Buy one from NewEgg and be done with it. Try it for 30 days, and return it if you find that you didn't really like touchy-feely computing, and you will only be out for the shipping costs. Again, just my 2 cents.
