Solitare End Game.

I miss the old bouncing stream of cards from the previous versions of
solitare. My wife likes the new breaking end game. Is there any way
to have both run on the same computer run Vista?

Thanks,

Robert

Yes, technically speaking. It may violate the EULA or some such, but you
can copy the solitaire executable from a Windows XP machine to a Windows
Vista machine and have it run.

On a Windows XP machine I believe it lives at C:\Windows\Solitaire.exe
although I don't have one handy to check.

I'll see what I can figure out. Thanks.
