1. A system, comprising:
- a sensor; and
logic coupled to sensor, said logic programs a sensitivity level into the sensor to a first sensitivity level if a proxy indicates that the system is likely in transit and to a second sensitivity level if proxy indicates that the system is likely not in transit.

Abstract
A system comprises a sensor and logic coupled to the sensor. The logic programs a sensitivity level into the sensor to a first sensitivity level if a proxy indicates that the system is in transit and to a second sensitivity level if proxy indicates that the system is not in transit.

12. A system, comprising:
-
a position sensor adapted to couple to a closeable display, said position sensor causing a sensor signal to be produced to indicate whether the display is open or closed;
a drop sensor that produces drop data indicative of at least one of a gravitational and motion state of the system; and
logic that is programmed with a threshold associated with said drop sensor based on whether the position sensor signal indicates that the display is open. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14, 15, 16)

17. A method, comprising:
-
determining whether a computer display is open or closed; and
programming a drop sensor associated with a computer with a lower threshold if the computer display is closed and with a higher threshold if the computer display is open. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19, 20)
