All this talk about mouse movment has me wondering why noone has
sugested the obvious: when the mouse cursor moves, have the mouse
crawl to the corresponding place on your desk.  Additional feedback
could be added: have the mouse bite when something wrong is attempted.
Some of the details may need to be worked out, such as: should the
mouse be willing to jump off the table?  :-)  (I have 4 terminals, but
the only mice I have are the furry kind.)
