[comp.sys.mac] Mice & Large Screens

*> The only disadvantage is that you cannot get the mouse fast enough to 
*> easily deal with the whole enormous area of the screen.

The Pointing Device CDEV available (I believe) for anonymous ftp from Sumex,
allows you to set your Mouse Tracking and double-click values to anything
from ridiculously slow to ridiculously fast.  You do this by setting the
motion thresholds at which the motion gets mutiplied x2, x3, x4, etc., up
to x8.  There are radio buttons for all of the standard Mouse CDEV speeds
plus Very Slow and Very Fast -- these pop values into the Custom boxes so
you can base your own values on them.

I played around with it and it was fun and seemed to work well, but it
wasn't too essential on a 9" Plus monitor.  (:
