The truth is, in Mac OS X you can change acceleration to whatever you want using many programs and techniques. I mentioned acceleration because a lot of people often confuse it with lag. The lag of a Mac OS X cursor is at least twice bigger than Windows’ cursor and yes, a human eye can surely notice that. * * * SmoothMouse, the long-awaited fix for mouse problems in OS X, has been released.įurther discussion about mouse lag continues on the SmoothMouse Forum.īy that I mean a delay between receiving movement data from the mouse device and rendering the on-screen cursor.
