I agree with that! The SB16/SCD-15 DB combo is quite a formidable setup.
Even Dark Forces works (well, on my system at least) even though the
README says it doesn't support it. The only game that fights once in a
while is ROTT. The game runs slowly once in a while, even the setup program,
if I turn on SB16 & SCD-15. Weird.
