Not a bad idea at all ... would be worth trying out. Might be too
dynamically distracting, or it could be a real aid.<br><br>

For example, blooming to an enlarged "attention-getting" size
while slewing or moving rapidly, shrinking to a "precision"
size (pointer, I-beam, fist, or whatever is appropriate to hovering
context)...provided that kind of behavior isn't blocked by some patently
obvious patent ;-) <br><br>

<dd>Hi Folks --<br><br>
<dd>Now that we've had more experience with running things on the XO, I
<br>
<dd>feel that the default "big arrow" cursor is too big. It
really gets<br>
<dd>in the way of many kinds of "pointing and hitting"
operations: text,<br>
<dd>small buttons, etc.<br><br>
<dd>What do you think? Could we make this cursor smaller? Could we make
<br>
<dd>its shape a little more pleasing?<br><br>
<dd>Cheers,<br><br>
