Microsoft's Windows 7 operating system offers three new timewasters for bored cube dwellers, bumped airline passengers, or people who just like games.
Included in the OS, which is expected to be available in final form later this year or early next, are new Internet-based versions of backgammon, checkers, and the card game spades.
"The new versions of these games have been completely redesigned and improved over their old-school predecessors," wrote Brandon LeBlanc, Microsoft's in-house Windows blogger, in a recent post. "Tired of Minesweeper? Definitely give these games a try and join the thousands of other players online who are playing too."
