I want a perfect image of the mouse cursor for a couple reasons.

A. Just to have it, possibly to add to screenshots or any number of random reasons I might need it.

B. To use on my Pismo with MightyMouse

C. To share it with everyone

The one that comes with MightyMouse is pretty close but not perfect; I can easily tell the difference and it bothers me a little bit.

The reason why I need the mouse cursor isn't particularly the issue, though. All I want to do is take a screen dump that includes the real cursor. I would think this would be possible somehow... But I don't know because I haven't seen it done.

If there was an emulator that ran Mac OS X with quartz extreme somehow enabled, that would probably work, but that's not possible at this time, if ever.

If anyone knows how to take a raw screen dump, that would be very helpful.
