I love solitare! I am playing it now on my iPod and I do it all the time! I played it with real cards since I was a kid. I just love the problem solving that comes with it and I think it shapens my mind while I play.

I love it; used to spend hours playing all kinds of solitaire.

Did a 5 hour run of Freecell once.

Every game is solvable, and must be solved before starting the next!

Oh! I used to be addicted to Solitaire (Windows version)! I loved it!

"Just one more time and I stop. No, this one doesn't count. Just one more. This is really the last one...." and so on, procrastinating doing homework.

But then I changed to another obsession and now there's been a long time since I last played.

I've got Sins of a Solar Empire now, and a single game of that can go on for 5 hours.

I love it too! My record time is 30 seconds, on XP, when it takes 3 cards at a time...

I remember when I was filming Lurk, and how me and Merlin had to wait until it got dark. I passed the time playing Solitaire on my laptop. Much better than that 'Legend of Zelda' thing he was playing. Pffft!

You should learn to play freecell, that is way better than solitare

I've been playing Clock Solitaire for years and I've never won. Funny thing is, when I explained it to a friend a while back, he won on his first try!

I like it. I prefer it with actual cards rather than on the computer. On the computer, Minesweeper is better (9secs beginner, can't remember intermediate best score).

A Rubik's cube is a bit more interesting though.
