- Let's hope they have enough sense to put it back in for the next
- shrinkwrapped version of OS/2. At least include it in the applets
- that are supposed to come out "this fall". Why they don't release
- half of them now, and the rest later I don't know. I imagine most
- of them must be fully tested by now.

- Yes, its only a game, but I've watched a few people sit down with an OS/2
- I installed and try out solitaire. The dithering looked so bad, that they
- just basically felt that OS/2 looked lousy. Why doesn't IBM include
- 16 color graphics along with the 256 color playing cards - it makes a much
- nicer impression for those just browsing OS/2 in standard VGA mode.
