You mean, a Sony Vaio laptop? Not gonna happen, unless you have the whole laptop in working condition and a tuner... even then, I wouldn't recommend it (too much of a delay for gaming... tv watching is ok, but not gaming).

Reason you can't use a laptop screen (of any kind) in a nutshell: the N64 uses a standard composite video connection, where laptop screens each use their own proprietary digital format. Not even the pros have done it, to the best of my knowledge, they just get a normal LCD instead.
