Then you want to disable mouse acceleration, and you're humped. Apple's approach to simplicity is just to extinguish user choice. That's not a great approach.

The trick to disabling mouse acceleration is not to move the slider all the way to the left. I believe it’s the position two notches to the right of the lowest setting which gives a linear response. Above and below that point you’re flipping the concavity of the curve.
