For completeness:

1. All these base-velocity, acceleration, and accel-curve settings may be,
and probably will be overwritten or overridden by MS Intellimouse, late
Logi, and other complex vendor drivers.

2. Gary is out of his frickin' mind.  Everyone knows that everyone wants
high acceleration (slow mouse for fine movements, high velocity on broad
strokes, when you're in a Wii-ish mood.

3. If you use an optical mouse (and you're a masochist if you're not), take
a look at the texture of your mousing surface.  I've seen the
"weave" of a textured or faux-wood tabletop totally fake out a
mouse, and give uneven H and V rates, or erratic operation, or both.

4. High-rate, modern rodents are a very good use of all the CPU we now have
under your fingers.  No need to put up with the coarse-rez,
first-generation optical you've always used, which may have compromises
built in (to baby that P166 you put in the dumpster five years ago).
