A look back at one of the most controversial games of all-time...Microsoft Solitaire. People in government tried to ban it. Many a person got fired from their job over it, and it started the whole conversation about computer addiction. Not bad for a little card game created by a summer intern. Enjoy!

Wow, this hits home for me. GREAT choice of subject matter! IMO the best computer game to play at work when you are supposed to be working is Zork. It's text only and could easily pass as a legacy application. I also worked as an information technology intern for the local county government in 1998-1999. The I.T. guys not only played games during business hours, they also had servers full of MP3s from Napster and a crap load of pirated games.
