+Q: How do I safely simulate freefall? I have an HP "portable
+workstation" which has about 3.5kg and a plastic case, so letting it
+fall to the ground is out of question...

+A: The sensor is pretty sensitive, so your hands can do it. Lift it
+into free space, follow the fall with your hands for like 10
+centimeters. That should be enough to trigger the detection.
