I am enjoying the Hoyle Card Games software I received from Amazon.It is working as it should and I have found no problems with it.

- Great for laptop
Neat games.
Works great in laptop (Vista)
Cannot install in desktop (XP) even though stated for XP & Vista
Had person try to install it who works on computers in a college, so it's not just me.
Fun to play on my laptop, wish I could on desktop.
Rating: - Just awful user experience.
They have taken a game obviously written in Windows 3.1 era and just made it not crash in Vista...(unless you try to switch from full screen to window mode that is). There are no improvements to the user experience whatsoever. You cannot use the keyboard at all. Prepare for cramps as you have to double click or click and drag every card played. This one's going on eBay asap. I only got it when I realized that the geniuses over at Microsoft removed spades from their default game selection in Vista ... Read More

- Inexpensive and limited
For $10 the software game has a lot of games.I got it for Klondike solitaire and wish it had more features but then I only paid $10!
