turn your mac into a lightsaber

i know this sounds ridiculous and believe me, my girlfriend called me something along those lines when i started swinging my powerbook around the room like a sword, but it’s now possible with this little application called macsaber.

you need a SMS (Sudden Motion Sensor) enabled mac for this to work, the application picks up the motions and movement of your mac and turns them into really realistic light saber type noises. oh, and if you’ve got a mac laptop with a backlit screen it will create brighter flashes with the more violent movements!
