    Win10 looks like XP so its a win/win.

    It's free and if you dont like it, uninstall it and roll back.

    It says for people who already registered and agreed to the upgrade.

    I think it's a time saver for them. At the same time, if this is buggy as , they're ed.

    ing solitaire wants you to pay a subscription fee to not see ads?

    Microsoft wants $1.49 a month to remove the ads it shows inside Solitaire on Windows 10
    MATT WEINBERGER

    Jul. 27, 2015, 4:06 PM 14,799 28

    Windows 10 comes bundled with the Microsoft Solitaire Collection, gathering a bunch of variations on the eternally popular card game. But included withing the game are ads for other products and services — and if you want to remove the ads, Microsoft is charging $1.49 a month (or the bulk discount of $9.99 a year).

    In the menu, users see an option to "Upgrade to Premium." Click it, and you get this display:


    For your $1.49 a month, you get a score boost in TriPeaks and Pyramid, and the chance to win a bunch of extra "coins," the in-game currency you win by completing challenges. You don't need it to play Solitaire, and the game itself plays more or less as it has since Windows 3.1 in the early nineties. But if you don't want to pay, get used to those ads.

    As PCWorld notes, this isn't the first time Microsoft has charged for Solitaire, and Windows 8 had a similar paid plan for its version of the card game. The main difference is that Solitaire didn't come bundled with Windows 8, as it does with Windows 10.

    This means that this is going to be front-and-center for a lot more users taking their free upgrade to Windows 10 this week.

    And do people still play that on computers?

    That stuff is so much easily accessible on your phone. Also, faster to get to.

    that solitaire gotta be a joke.

    Good thing is with windows store there are probably better solitaires out there for free.

    Microsoft is at the edge of the cliff. It'll be interesting if they can claw back or if they will finally fall to the prescipice.

    I'm guessing being a casual user has its advantages.

    My Windows 7 is OEM, so I can't upgrade my motherboard and keep the key. Windows treats new motherboard = new computer. And I'm going to upgrade to an H97 board and use my current H81 board for a NAS box.

    I don't want an identical board, I want to upgrade to H97 so I can use an M.2 SSD as my system drive and also to get PCIE-3.0. It would be nice to have a clean build with absolutely no SATA cables thanks to all the storage drives being on the NAS.
