...What do you have against the new calculator? I use it really heavily and am a fan. I have to do some stuff with hex, so I drop into some of the additional modes from time to time even. There's no ads in the new calculator for sure.

Adding ads is definitely an irritation, but my point is, they are funding a supported, maintained product with Solitaire. It's more than just Solitaire now. It currently has five different games, not including features like daily challenges and the like. It gets updated reasonably regularly.
