    Hey guys, I just bought a new rMBP 13" late 2013 yesterday, and was very surprised to discover that there's no easy, built-in way to disable mouse acceleration.

    So to those of you who use Macs with mice and mouse acceleration off, what is the best way to disable mouse acceleration while being able to modify the speed/sensitivity?

    The only way to properly simulate disabled mouse acceleration is with a 3rd party USB driver. I've had the best results with Steermouse.
