- I saw an example of this on a 3b10 (If I remember right) at the Oklahoma
- State Fair. AT&T had put together an exhibit where they digitized a picture
- and scrambled it. You then used a touch screen to put the picture back together. (Hey guys, this was 5 years ago!)

- How did it solve the puzzle?
-
- They cheated. They just remembered every move made and reversed it. If you
- have a good enough memory, I guess that is a valid way to do it! :-)
