I wonder if it still cheats
For the heck of it I played a quick game of Solitaire on the new computer before going to bed and while watching the "winner display" I wondered if someone had rewritten the code so it wouldn't blaze by on this new faster machine. I've played it on other really fast machines and found the cards whiz by too quickly. While they were at it, I wonder if they "fixed" the cheating that software clearly does. Think so?
Of course, it won't replace my beloved Spider Solitaire. And I'm glad to see FreeCell back in the mix. Now to find a good Mah Jong game that isn't too kitschy. I'd put on the Microsoft version I have, but it would be really, really small on this screen. The only game I installed so far is Lego Loco and that's not really a game, just a wonderful diversion. I don't think I'll install the Microsoft Arcade games I've had since Windows 3.1 and hardly played. And no doubt I'll avoid installing the Atari games that I bought when I acquired my Gateway 5300. Nor the Bicycle card games I got free with a box of cereal. As much as I like to play Cribbage, that software is just junk.
