The hard drives in new ThinkPads and Power Books have a motion sensor so they can park the drive heads if it thinks it’s being kicked around or something. Now, someone has written software that lets you use the motion sensor as a game controller, tilting the laptop in midair. Brilliant.

It also makes me want WarioWare Twisted even more. Having said that, my experiences a while back with a Microsoft tilt joypad were fairly unimpressive though there weren’t exactly games around at the time to take advantage of it.
