I don't know you guys, but I have always found the Mac OS X mouse movements unnatural.
At first, I thought it was just a matter of time and I would get used. But since I use Windows at work everyday, I simply couldn't get used to it.
Yesterday I decided to do a Google search on Mac OS X's mouse acceleration and found it was not just me. Even worse, people who had been using Mac for several years also complained about Mac OS X's mouse acceleration (and how it is worse than Mac OS 9 or below).
Bottomline, I found a small simple program called MouseFix which improves the mouse movements a lot and thought others could also benefit from it. Here it goes

It's a small command-line program that doesn't make any permanent changes to your Hack OS. If you like your mouse better with it, just make it run automatically (i.e.: include it in your .profile)
