Normally I would just throw this in the youtube/linkage section, but I think this deserves a full-fledged discussion XD

Basically, Macbooks have motion sensors, and you can write programs that take advantage of this utility, such as a pinball game where you tilt the Mac. In the video above, the guys have installed Macsaber, which is a program that uses the motion sensors to make light saber noises as you move your Mac.

So what better to do with this program than have a lightsaber Macsaber battle? XD

The sensitivity needs some work, and the Macs should use their wireless capabilities to detect when they "clash" with each other, but it's cute and interesting, that's for sure.
