WiiSaber: Star Wars Kid, do your thing
We've seen the MacSaber, we've seen the DarwiinRemote, now behold the ultimate in nerddom: the WiiSaber. Just like you'd expect, the WiiSaber combines your erratic Wiimote-sensed arm motions with those purtiful lightsaber sound effects built into the MacSaber app for beautiful WiiSaber harmony. But don't take our word for it, just check out the nerds after the break doing what they do best.[Via TUAW]
WiiSaber
Remember MacSaber, the little program that turned your Mac portable with motion sensing into a lightsaber (well, at least made it sound like one whilst you were wildly swinging it around)? I know some people, like me, were a little wary of swinging around their portables for fun and that is where WiiSaber comes in.Get your Wiimote (which comes with Nintendo's Wii), add a Mac, and now you can swing your Wiimote around like mad and pretend you're a Jedi.Thanks, Ian.
SmackBook and MacSaber -- best two reasons to buy a MacBook?
If you've already grown tired of impressing your friends and family with that iAlertU car alarm app for your MacBook or MacBook Pro, you might be interested in a couple new apps that should make you even prouder to be a MacBook owner. They're both based on the MacBook's sudden motion sensor, and both have the honorable distinction of not really doing much at all to improve your quality of life. The SmackBook, as demonstrated in the video, allows you to switch desktops by smacking the side of your precious MacBook. If you don't think that's enough potential endangerment of your MacBook, you might be interested in MacSaber, which makes light saber noises when you swing your computer around, and light saber clashes when you swing it really hard (peep the video by Metafilter founder Matthew Haughey). We just can't wait for reports to start flooding in of far flung laptops. Now if you'll excuse us, we're going to head down to an Apple Store and try this stuff out.[Thanks to everyone who sent these in]Read - SmackBookRead - MacSaber
Star Wars Kid revisited with MacBook
I'm finally done being in pain from laughter to post this hilarious revisit of the Star Wars Kid using that MacSaber app we found over the weekend. Great work, YouTube user mathowie.[via Waxy.org]
