    I think I'll try it... gently.



    Any way to launch a script that plays a sound, like "ouch" or "hey!" or something when you invoke the "smack"?




    That would be a great commerical.

    1) Download AMSTracker from here http://www.osxbook.com/book/bonus/chapter10/ams/



    2) Drag the unix executable to the Desktop



    3) Try this trivial script



    do shell script "~/Desktop/AMSTracker"



    it should return the x, y, and z coordinates of the MacBook.
