The only catch is that you need the XSystems XBIOS for it to work. XBIOS is a replacement bios for the SB180's moves much of the bios code into an alternate RAM bank. I don't have XSystems address in front of me, but I can get it for you if you need it. Plu*Perfect Systems' address is: 410 23rd St. Santa Monica, CA 90402 The price for DosDisk for the SB180 is $35. I believe that there is also a version of Uniform for the SB180, but I don't know how to get in touch with the people who market it. Jeff Wieland wieland@ecn.purdue.edu
