David,

Thanks much! I appreciate it. (I should have found that one myself. I
stopped after the first search hit on "Macintosh cursor".)

In the world I live in -- Astronomy -- there is currently a dramatic
move away from PCs and Linux boxes to the Mac platform. I'm sure that
is the case more broadly as well. A compilation of Mac-related
questions/answers/discussion would probably be well-read. I'm not the
right person to maintain the list, but if I knew someone was keeping
track, I'd certainly contribute anything that I ran across.

Cheers,
Jeff
