  Hehe. I like this one because I get to play 2x2 su doku, and then I get to play turing machine.

Well looks like mjn beat me to a 4-digit Sudoku embedding, but since I put so much time into this I might as well upload it.

Though mjn's is much more efficient and slick as far as automation goes, this one does offer a few advantages:

1. There is already a puzzle in place so you don't need to build your own.
2. The solution is less obvious since you're allowed to move all non-given blocks wherever you want before you finalize the solution.
3. There is a difference in texture between the given blocks and your blocks so you don't get them confused.

Sorry about the 300+ moves of verification!
