Nope. I can't even get that in my C++ programs, and C++ runs up to 100 times faster than Flash, maybe more. It's not really a Flash or C++ problem, anyway--it's a Windows problem. Windows sends a MOUSE_MOVE message whenever it can, but there is no way it can keep up if you zip across 2,000 pixels in 1/10 second. You'll see the same thing in any paint program, or, for that matter, on those electronic signature pads at the store. Ok, the signature pads probably use left-over 6502s, but even a fast processor can't keep up when you zip across the screen. You might try some sort of interpolation algorithm if you need every pixel, like in a drawing program.
