1) Use an arcade monitor...
2) Use an RGB to VGA converter to view it on a PC Monitor.

Wait... that implies that you could feed the signal directly into a monitor with RGB connectors? I thought the voltage coming off of an arcade board was different than the expected voltages for a PC monitor signal. Or is that what SCART actually is? A nicely packaged RGB feed.

SCART basically makes it possible to use a euro tv as an arcade monitor.   Arcade monitors and TVs are basically the same piece of equipment for display purposes.  Only the method of input is different. (US/Canadian manufacturers do not have to so they do not provide a scart input.
