Short answer, no. This is not a scandoubler. You will not be able to play lemmings full screen on a SVGA monitor.
Someone has to state the obvious and that someone is me!

I have one of these (or had rather, my A1200 is retired now).

It will allow you to use VGA monitor, but only using the VGA compatible modes. Like Red said, it won't allow you to see games/demos etc.

It will be fine for regular desktop use, though.
