Yes! This was my biggest gripe when switching from Windows - the mouse 'feel' is, well, wrong. I played around with the mouse settings, downloaded software to change the acceleration curve - nothing worked!

I'm now used to the mouse behaviour on OS X, but every time I have to switch back to Windows to do some testing I realise what I'm missing.

The mouse is such a crucial part of the experience it's odd that Apple haven't gotten it right.

Weirdly I had the exact opposite experience. There is simply no way that I've found to get Mac-like acceleration on Windows.

I've hated every Windows/Linux touchpad I've used, but I love the Mac trackpad. I am not a gamer, though.
