Odd. I have two 1920x1280 monitors (arranged as yours). With my mouse acceleration I can go from extreme left to extreme right without much effort (don't have to lift my palm off the desk). Yet I can easily hit small targets a few pixels across. Buttons are easy.

This is on Windows - haven't switch to Mac to test it - maybe the OS X acceleration is linear and hence a bit sucky?

Mac OS has even more acceleration than Windows by default. That's a common complaint among new Mac users, who often incorrectly and adamantly insist both that Windows has a linear mapping where 1 inch on the mouse pad equals N inches on the screen, and that that is the right way to do it.

Not really an issue on my mac with two 1280x1024 displays. I can span both monitors in about 2-3 inches of mouse movement. Some people really like text-based input though, which explains the popularity of Apps like Quicksilver.
