Windows XP Easter Egg - Easier Way to Force Win in Solitaire

Select the 'Timed game' and 'Standard' scoring options, then play for over 30 seconds. Press Alt + Shift + 2 (above 'w', not keypad 2). This will end the game, add a bonus to your score, and play the celebration. After the celebration (which may be gracefully ended with a mouse click), you are asked "Deal Again?". If you select 'No', and press Alt + Shift + 2 at this point, your bonus will again be added to your score, and the celebration begins anew.

Not only do you win, you can accumulate a very high score!
