This is not a good idea. The power outlets on the field only allow current of up to 3 amps before it trips its internal breaker. Powering a computer of that size AND a monitor will definitely pull more than that.

See 2.2.3.1 here, under PLAYER STATION: https://firstfrc.blob.core.windows.n...-manual-02.pdf
