duh ... ooops! Sorry!

I was just about to get on my high horse and say that you're wrong, but I
stand corrected. Enclosed is a screenshot of the proper tab for mouse
speed -- *not* for mouse keys. Please see attachment.
(The reason for this mistake, I believe, is that I use the other tab nearly
every time I boot up, because I cannot get my mouse key settings to be
permanent unless I click-unclick that little box every time.) My mind just
tuned out that detail (mouse keys not mouse speed), because I never touch it
otherwise.

P.S. I work on a desktop, by the way. I ought to have specified that detail,
too, for what it's worth. My settings might not work so well on a laptop with
a touchpad.
Also, isn't acceleration (or deceleration) supposed to be a rate of increase
or decrease of speed? not speed itself? It seemed to me that these terms were
being used almost interchangeably.
