I believe you can download it and play for free if you have the original TR.
If you don't, it's cheap here: http://www.amazon.com/Tomb-Raider-Unfinished-Business-Jewel/dp/B00002SAI6

I would download this since I've never played this and I want to but I got a broken version for the PS1 :(
Atlantean Stronghold (the first of the two bonus Atlantis levels) ties with Temple of Xian as my favorite TR level of all time. I seem to remember it being way too short, but there are certain images from that level that just stuck with me for a long time.
If anyone here hasn't played it, do so as soon as possible.

Seeing as you asked (twice), here is a quote from Philip Campbell, the level designer, about Shadow of the Cat (from The Tomb Raider's Travelers guide)
"The cat statue discovered in the original game triggered off a series of ideas - what if Lara returned to Khamoon to investigate?....what if the ruins had become flooded?.....what if the cat statue actually pointed the way to an undiscovered tomb - dedicated to the legendary Egyptian cat-goddesses? - we developed a story with a very strong cat motif, in murals, in hieroglyphics, benevolent cats that guide, malevolent cats out for your blood! Puzzles were developed based on the Egyptian interpretation of the 'nine lives of the cat' - so you KNOW that you're not going to have much luck with Seth's room!"
And from The Croft Times this, also from Philip Campbell :
"Are the new levels supposed to fit in with the original game in any particular sequence?"
"The two Atlantis levels are supposed to follow on directly from the end of the last level of TR1, and should really be played BEFORE the Cat levels."
"That sets them at the correct difficulty level (i.e. expert). You have to start without pickups and only with your pistols - then, the shotgun is easy to get, and I provided plenty of shells to influence the player to use it, and perhaps also influence the style of play - slow and stealthy. The Uzi's are then not available until the 2nd level, and they are in a special place ( the 'shop window' in the big Lava room). The magnums are reasonably well hidden in the first level... "
"The cat levels are a return to Khamoon supposedly after the end of the Atlantis adventure - the cat statue in the original game caught Lara's attention so she returns to check it out..."
"For a tougher challenge, cheat skip through the cat levels and play the Atlantis levels as they were intended, nothing but guns to start. Then in the scheme of things, the shotgun is practically handed to you, and plenty of shells early on to tempt you into that kind of stealthy-shotgun-type-of-play...."

The unfinished business levels are really fun to play. They're beautifully designed.

TRUB Was Perfect! I May Sound Crazy But I liked TRUB More Than The Original;)
I have it around here somewhere, but I don't remember playing it all the way through because there was no sound.

If you have the original TR1 then download TR:UB (http://www.tombraiderchronicles.com/tr1/gold/demo.html) :)
well i only recently got it, the plays a bit funky on my pc as im sure theirs a patch ive missed but its bareable
but from wot ive seen so far i LOVE it and i really reccoment it! :ton::jmp:

All of you just need to install TR:UB properly. How? CLICKY (http://www.tombraiderhub.com/faq/tr1.html) :)

If you have the original TR1 then
dus it haft to be for pc :confused:
cus i have it for ps:D
i didn't like it much.
firstly, if the atlantis levels are meant to carry on directly from TR1's last level (shes even sliding down the SAME SLOPE) then it seems a bit strange that you have to play the egypt revisited levels first.
it should go: atlantis stronghold > TR1 ending > return to egypt
also, the egypt levels in UB have slightly different layout than in TR1, even though its meant to be in the same chambers.
i think certain doors or passages have disappeared (or appeared)
too many enemies for me as well. its ridiculous sometimes.
