MacSaber: Motion-Sensor Madness with your Macbook

MacSaberHave you ever had the sudden, inexplicable urge to show off your Jedi powers at work? Has there ever been a nagging thought in the back of your head that there might be more to your Macbook’s sleek edges and glowing design than simple aesthetics? Well, your suspicions are correct, young padawan, and Jedi Master iSnoop from over at the SomethingAwful Forums has just the tool for you.

Weapon of ChoiceMacSaber is probably the most unconventional use of your Macbook’s (or Macbook Pro’s) sudden-motion sensor technology, utilizing it to trigger authentic light-saber sound effects that can even sense how fast or slow you swing your ($2,000) laptop around. This app is probably the most fun you’ll ever have with your Macbook and brings a whole new dimension to the corporate cubicle battlefield.

Best of all, it’s completely free, which should help you save some money for when you discover that you may have used a little bit too much Force for that last swing. You can pick up a copy of the latest version from iSnoop’s blog page. No word yet on whether or not “Light-saber Battles” are covered by warranty.
