[edit] History

Microsoft has included the game as part of the Windows operating system since Windows 3.0, starting from 1990. The game was developed in 1989 by then-intern Wes Cherry, who famously received no revenue from his endeavours. The card deck itself was designed by Macintosh pioneer Susan Kare.
