Thanks Brad

CursorXP is a program that allows Windows XP and Windows 2000 users to supercharge their mouse cursors. It's really gotta be seen to be believed. The freeware version supports cursors of any size, all sorts of special effects, and more.

New in version 1.1:
  • Fixed compatibility bugs with games and full screen apps
  • Fixed jumping tooltips bug
  • Fixed CXP cursors dissapearing on dragging icons
  • Several GUI improvements.
  • New scriptable animations!
  • CursorXP compatible with the 'Hide pointer while typing' Windows option
  • Support for 20 different languages!

Inform research manager Phil Burnham said Microsoft had sold just 1500 consoles a week for the past fortnight and if sales continued at that rate the three-monthly figures would barely reach 30,000.

"I think they needed to drop it that low," Mr Burnham said. "It's the price the GameCube will be at launch. In the United States the Xbox and PS2 are the same price and the PS2 is still outselling the Xbox. It also makes it less likely that they'll be beaten on price if Sony reacts with a price drop."

If the price of the Xbox remained the same in the US, Australia could be the cheapest in the world.

Mr Burnham said the price drop was of such magnitude it was almost like a relaunch, but it was a "very good move" that would drive sales strongly. The $250 gift should keep existing Xbox owners happy.

Honestly it is a good piece of software and other stardocks products are nice pieces of software to if you are into deep costumization of the gui.
