It is fairly recent that Apple made the acceleration curves usable by default: classically Apple's cursors did not do this, and some people would seriously install Microsoft mouse drivers on their Macs specifically to get this acceleration behavior. It is highly likely that this person is talking about the situation from the last time he cared to evaluate Apple products, maybe five years ago (which frankly, I think is entirely fair for this thread's context).
I hate that macs have the mouse acceleration cranked up by default. Every time I have to show a coworker how to do something on his computer, I have to stifle the urge to throw his mouse across the room.
