You just need to buy some software that allows you to do that, and a cable.

Not sure of any software off the top of my head but there is a few packages out there. Try Google.

I wouldn't say it costs thousands.. under $400

I built a similar machine for a different task a few months back, cost me $500, but that was with a big HDD and expensive motherboard, lots of ram..

Oh I thought you had that already. I don't think you're going to get anything off the shelf that goes from OBD to VGA.....
