I learned all these official Monopoly rules a long time ago with a handheld device that used to play it. Even had it's own little characters programmed into it (Greedy Granny, Hotshot, etc.)
That said, I do play with the Free Parking house rule whenever I'm playing with other people, and that's simply because I LIKE my Monopoly games to last forever. Free Parking can change the whole tide of the game, and when that happens it makes for a more memorable game, IMO.
