Coming from the "Owner of a Broken Heart" department, the Lockergnomaster known only as "CptSiskoX" has stacked the deck in your favor. We've discussed how solitaire has lost its digital charm; Windows 98 comes with MS Hearts. Don't ya love it? Would you like to love it more? For the voyeurs in the crowd, here's a registry hack which will allow you to see your opponents' hands. Fire up REGEDIT.EXE and navigate to HKEY_CURRENT_USER \ Software \ Microsoft \ Windows \ CurrentVersion \ Applets \ Hearts. In the right-hand pane, create a new String Value. Immediately rename it to "ZB" (without the quotes); give it a value of "42" (again, sans quotes). The next time you're in a game of Hearts, press CTRL + SHIFT + ALT + F12. There's no way you can lose now.
