FROM THE ARTICLE
For twenty years, one video game has tormented the office workers of the world more than any other. And it has nothing to do with farms, orcs or terrorists.

In an age where video gaming on the PC is thought to be the refuge of hardcore shooter fans, Facebook farmers and World of Warcraft players, it’s easy to forget that a game exists which has been around for decades, been enjoyed by hundreds of millions of people and is (unless you’re on a Mac) likely available for you to play, for free, right now.

I’m talking about Windows Solitaire.
