You can in OS X, don't see why ya couldn't in OSx86. But you did bump your thread ONLY 10 minutes after posting originally. That hardly is sufficient time for people to see your post.

you know of a good site with themed mouses?

As far as I know there are no tools which allow you to change cursors that are compatible with Leopard and Snow Leopard.

Plus I've only seen a handful of them. But again, they aren't gonna work in 10.5 and above.

.Neo, you're right. This is not hardware related.

Also, why would you even want to change the cursor? I thought the days of that Comet Cursor malware crap were long dead even in Windows world. I'd throw a fit if I saw someone applying a theme to their cursor in OS X.

Nothing worse than that dam dinosaur cursor LOL

On that note, I agree. What type of cursor did you have in mind to replace the default with? What would be so special, don't like the rainbow ball lol

    • WUT?! Tell us you've never built desktop software without telling us you've never built desktop software... The chromium rendering engine is the content-rendering engine for "chromium-based browsers," but that does NOT mean there's a full-on UI underneath that is somehow bloating these products. The bloat is from the additional UI components that the browser vendor (Vivaldi) is adding atop the base package. Most chromium browsers customize the default skin/theme of the overall package so there's absolutely zero added overhead; it's really just a different CSS-based theme pack. Vivaldi, however, adds more than just a different skin; they add built-in extensions (that are managed by other built-in extensions), add other customization modules, and all kinds of other bloat -- and these add-ons are EXACTLY where the resource-hogging stems from. The mere fact it's a chromium-based browser has no impact on the matter. Lastly, power users literally DO notice resource-intensive applications -- they'll even be familiar with tools and widgets that expose those measurements the way only a power-user would! General consumers, however, would simply remark that their rig is sluggish and probably outdated and blindly upgrade to whatever the salespeople are hawking at the local computer store. General consumers wouldn't even upgrade their existing computer cuz they wouldn't know how to!
