hello everyone.

Two questions: 

(I suppose I must first confess to not having updated to 2.3, let alone 
2.3.1, & I am using the starter kit)

1.  I have got this crazy idea that maybe it would be possible to diagnose 
Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder in kids using a graphical task and 
analysing the mouse movements on the sly. I even prototyped something in SC 
3.0 a while ago.  I have followed the list with interest on how to track 
mouse movements without using On idle.  Nice.  The difficulty is that the 
monitor and mouse settings must have a major impact on the kind of mouse 
movements you encounter.  The child might be mellow and calm, but the 
sensitivity makes them appear frantic in their movements.  Maybe even the 
make and model of mouse would have an effect?  I get the impression that 
there is no way of detecting the sensitivity of a mouse?  How about the 
resolution of the monitor?  Any ideas out there to make it as level a playing 
field as possible for all users (on either platform)?  Or is this crazy idea 
a non starter?

2  I have an HP4000 Laserjet that produces unpleasant dithered card images.  
The tasteful grey background is dithered to make text almost unreadable.  The 
printer is capable of 600 dpi so ought to look better.  Anyone suggest what 
might be going on?  To make things tricky, I am using Mac OS 9 on an iBook 
and PowerPrint USB.  I also scale the image to 75% and print rather than 
printing to a rectangle.  I thought scaling shouldn't matter, am i right?

Ok, so that was more than 2 questions, but you know how it is once you get 
going
