I have the ATI VGA WONDER on my system and it does indeed work as an EGA
driver.  I found out because I plugged my multisync monitor into the wrong 
video port (it provides both) and the setup software kept telling me I
had an EGA monitor (it senses the monitor type automatically) and wouldn't
let me go into VGA mode.  It also emulates CGA, MDA & Hercules and a
couple of modes I don't remember.

You also have the option of buying the VGA WONDER/256 which is cheaper but
has only 256k of video ram on board.  This is upgradable at a later date
to 512k to give higher resolution VGA modes (800x600, 1024x768).

Goferit!
