POWERBOOK HACKING | 03.16 08:29 AM
Tweaking the Accelerometer

Apple's latest PowerBook laptops contain a tiny accelerometer--a device
that senses sudden movement, and in which direction--so that, if you
drop the computer, the hard drive instantly parks its own heads to
protect your data.

IBM Thinkpads had had the same inertial sensor for awhile. There's even
an application that comes with the laptop that shows it rotate as you
rotate it in the air. So PC fans can have some luck too.
