What I want to know is how do I increase the sensitivity (and decrease
the acceleration or "turbo" feature) beyond the defaults for both DOS
and OS/2. I have sweaty palms (and apparently fingertips too) and the
trackpoint tends to get slick so it's difficult for me to put much
pressure on it. And I happen to like the way F-16 Falcon handles the
joystick -- it's so sensitive you think of moving and it does. :)
