And unfortunately you won't. You see the "busy" pointer is a workbench thing.
Think of the workbench as another application and it makes more sense. As an
application, it picked the "cloud" as it's busy pointer. Unfortunately, 
because Workbench is the desktop model it is sort of seen as the "official"
busy pointer. This is where C/A could have done a better job. Fortunately
for you, there is the RFE process and this is a good application for it.
Join me in sending an RFE to cbmvax!bugs and maybe we can get Jimm to 
slip it into Intuition. (It won't break TextCraft, I promise) My suggestion
was a new intuition function :

	(void) BusyPointer(struct Window *win)

And a new "screen" on preferences that let you edit the "standard" busy
pointer. (Thus making it a part of preferences and all that implies)

These opinions are my own and no one elses, but you knew that didn't you.
