I am actually using it. At least as of today. I used an Intellimouse Explorer 3.0 for a very long time (and an MS Optical before that) and I never used to have mouse acceleration turned on, but ever since I got my Logitech G602 Wireless thing I have struggled with mouse movement. No matter how I messed around with the settings and the sensitivity I always had to change it the next time I used it. And no matter the speed the pointer has always felt wiggly and non-intuitive, and has felt like it was either moving to fast or to slow. Part of it is probably the weight of the mouse, fine movement has been nigh impossible because the force it takes to move the mouse is the same force it take to nudge the mouse to far. BUT: This weekend I reinstall Windows and I forgot to disable mouse acceleration ... and now the mouse is fine. It is more than fine. I have precision again! I don't remember mouse acceleration ever improving anything. I haven't really played games with it on yet though, so I might change my tune then, but right now it's great.
Is this a thing of modern mice? Is mouse acceleration different now than it used to be?
