So I'm wondering if the CRT monitors made by Makvision can be connected directly to a PC?

I have no experience with true CRT monitors and I don't wanna get electrocuted...lol. Do any of the monitors in the link above connect directly to PC?
How is this accomplished if they do?
My other question is that I have found a Mortal Kombat cabinet with a working monitor for $500 on Craigslist. I know about the Arcade VGA and breakout cable, but I'm scared to delete the graphics drivers in my pc in order not to conflict with the Arcade VGA. As a NEWB to all this, would I be better off getting a crt that hooks directly to PC, or go the route of using an existing monitor such as the one in the MK cab?

All the monitors in that link can be directly connected to your pc (15 D-Sub)
As for your other question, it's still easy to connect the mortal kombat monitor to your pc with the help of a j-pac http://www.ultimarc.com/jpac.html (http://www.ultimarc.com/jpac.html)
