Default Pinball ?

I agree. Pinball should have Classic status.

Microsoft please consider.

I think Pinball was introduced in Microsoft Plus! for Windows 95

I don't really think they will bring it back, maybe it's got something
to do with the license agreement (it was created by Maxis I think).

But if they are, I would really hope they revamp the game with Vista
graphics like the other games did.

Will pinball be included in Windows Vista? Pinball has been a classic
and
included since the days of Windows NT.

There are no other games that come shipped with Vista, but other

different manufacturers will be available )

Well you can just copy the pinball game from XP, but it IS actually a proper
store bought game that was slimmed down for inclusion in XP. So, you could
always just buy the proper game and get other tables too!
