Hey all.
I got this new desktop computer last year with Windows 7, and I must say - Solitaire is much harder than it used to be on it, or is it my imagination? I used to be quite good at it on Windows XP, but now it says I've only won 14% of the games I've played. Undecided

Bah

I wouldn't know. The built-in games are one of the first things I remove from my PCs after installing Windows.

Bah.

14% is pretty good, my average is about 12% for 150+ games
