From a recent HP communication I shouldn't be forwarding :)
> GIANT PUZZLE. On Saturday, May 18, HP and Disney Interactive
> teamed up with 700 schoolchildren, their parents and teachers at
> the Los Angeles Coliseum to create a gigantic computer-generated
> image of Mickey Mouse. The actual Mickey Mouse image was 106
> feet wide and 113 feet long, making it what is believed to be the
> largest Mickey Mouse ever printed. Overall size of the puzzle
> was 182 feet wide by 152 feet long. It included more than 2,000
> recyclable pieces, each measuring about 3 feet by 4 feet. HP
> DeskJet and DesignJet printers were run continuously by a vendor
> for more than 1,680 hours during two weeks to produce the puzzle
> image, which was made up of more than 354 billion dots. The
> actual assembly of the large puzzle by hundreds of participants
> was choreographed by the leader of the University of Southern
> California's band.
>
> The event is being submitted to The Guinness Book of World
> Records for several categories: the world's largest
> computer-generated puzzle; the world's largest printed image; the
> world's largest inkjet printed image, and the world's largest
> Mickey Mouse ever printed.
