Let us know if solitaire is still as cool as we remember it being.

I love the solitaire program I have. However, it's not Windows 95 solitaire and lacks all of the old-timey nostalgia value.

Clever edit there, OP.
It would be a shame if somebody were to "accidentally" interject because you posted it a certain way.

Whatever, its not the same as having a dedicated machine. Could have picked up a P75 for pennies.

I said I was using QEMU in the first post, and it's obvious in every screenshot. I used Windows 95 (and before that, 3.1) on a Packard Bell with 8MB RAM and a 133MHz Pentium when I was a kid. However, that computer died over 10 years ago and I'm not going to try to hunt down a 15+ year old computer on eBay or Craigslist just to play with Windows 95. If you want to do that then go ahead, but I'll stick with the virtual machine. Thanks.
