 Yeah. EGA is pretty much the same as standard VGA
(where windows is
concerned). The colors (to me) look alot richer and more vibrant on an EGA.
Maybe they just ditched the CGA/Herc drivers then.  
3.1 (and 3.11?) had support for Hercules Mono.  Which, iirc, wasn't such a
bad standard at 720xsomething (better than std VGA?)  Of course, you didn't
get all those pretty colors...  (Thank goodness *somebody*'s coloring all
those boring old black and white movies!  8^)
