I have tried to connect a VGA monitor (usually used with pc) to
my amiga rgb output.
I got a nice picture exept that the center of the screen was at the
edges and the edges were at the center of the screen.
Should I put some logic on the horizontal sync signal to invert it?

I killed one monitor by connecting its h-sync AND v-sync to the
amigas v-sync.  I don't mind, it's more fun than buying an amiga monitor.
