Just plug in two USB mice and use them? Doesn't that work?

I suspect some IRQ/hardware conflicts in case of two mouse-type devices. Why would you need that?...

Plug 2 mice and it will work with ONE cursor.

It wont hurt anything, technically I have 3 hooked up right now. USB mouse, USB Drawing Tablet, with pen and a mouse.

edit: I've never heard of having two cursors. What task do you have that requires it?

trying to automate some shit, basically my mouse speed movement is on max, and to move the cursor from say the top right corner to the left bottom corner of the screen takes 1 second, if I have a second cursor that is postitioned closer to the bottom left corner it will take 1/2 a second

wel, probably didn't make much sense to you, but if I can do that it'll help me ;)
