Comment on Why is the mouse cursor slightly tilted and not straight?parent

The Commodore Amiga had something similar along with an early 'double 90 degree' cursor [1] and a 1/2 pixel ratio cursor in later versions if the OS [2]. Both are pretty delightful :)

Welp, you just gave me a heap'o'nostalgia

Same here, when I was a kid I used to spend hours drawing custom cursors or custom icons.

Ditto. Ah, the good old days of Deluxe Paint III and AMOS.

Great! Now I want ye olde Amiga cursors for X11.
