Title: Re: Rubix Cube Post by: Ardiles on Thursday, March 19, 2009, 12:37:49 I learned how to do the cube in 1980 from a book (which I still have...it was called 'You too can do the Cube' or something like it and was written by a self-taught, very spoddy looking teenager called Patrick Bossert.)
I was 7 at the time. I would then charge kids at school 10p each for doing their cubes at break time. Truly one of Thatcher's children.

Title: Re: Rubix Cube Post by: jonny72 on Thursday, March 19, 2009, 13:53:10 There's an app you can get for the iPhone. You take pictures of all six sides of the cube, then it analyses it and tells you how to solve it. Its about the only chance I'd ever have of solving that damn thing, never managed it once as a kid.

Title: Re: Rubix Cube Post by: herthab on Thursday, March 19, 2009, 15:05:05 I had one, tried for about 2 minutes to solve it, then spent 5 minutes throwing it at walls to break it.
Very satisfying. Title: Re: Rubix Cube Post by: Lumps on Thursday, March 19, 2009, 17:34:02 I learned to do it at school. The Mrs bought me one a few Christmas's ago and i was really suprosed that 20 odd years later I could still do the bloody thing.
