Way back when, if you completed the classic game Solitaire, each card in the deck would start to bounce and would conclude after the last card in the deck bounced.
In Windows 95, they were slow bouncers. First, I had a 386SX Intel processor system, and then a box with a 100 MHz Pentium and EDO memory. As the pc hard ware got more powerful, the Solitaire cards bounced faster and faster until you could no longer see individual cards. The whole event was blur.
Now, in Windows XP running in my Athlon XP box and DDR Memory, the slow bouncing cards are back.
Incidentally, my best Solitaire performance was 6,141 points done in 127 seconds. I have a screen shot to prove it.
I also did a "0" score in 29 seconds. That is, I failed to move any card from any row or column or from the deck.
