In contrast to Windows 7 which allows user to quickly snap active windows at left and right side of the screen to view both app windows side by side, Mac OS X 10.7 doesn’t provide options to snap windows to both sides of the screen. TileWindows Lite is a small yet useful application which brings this very snapping feature to Mac desktop. Dae, thanks very much for this info. I am owner of several Razer mice (Pro Click, DeathAdder, Mamba) and can confirm the problem of occasional jerky mouse cursor movements under Mac OS X. I found the best way to see whether or not your mouse cursor moves smoothly is playing a mine sweeper game. This is the pointer you see the most. It’s used to point to and select items, move scroll bars, resize windows, and more. If you lose track of the pointer on the screen, quickly move your finger on the trackpad or quickly move the mouse—the pointer briefly gets bigger so you can see it. Restricts cursor movement to specified intervals.
