Your PC, with a suitable BT adaptor will see and recognise the headset, or
at least it should do and install it as if it were a voice comms device.
I've never used it, other than pairing a headset with the laptop and a
proper PC so I don't know what the capabilities are, but it should be
possible I would think.
