Get The New Vista Aero Cursors

By Nathan Weinberg

The new build of Windows Vista, only available to private testers, includes some neato alpha blended mouse cursors. If you are running Vista Beta 2, or an older version of Windows, you might want to check them out. They look beautiful in Vista Beta 2, and I hear the shadowing isn’t great in Windows XP.

The download is available here. If it goes down, comment, and I will mirror them.
To install, extract the zip file, right-click on the Install.inf file, and click install. In Vista, you need to elevate the permissions on the C:\Windows\Cursors\ folder, by right-clicking on it, clicking security, and waiding through the third and fourth circle of hell. Thanks a bunch to Alan Le for extracting and sharing them.(via Alexander Gross)
The text select cursor is my favorite of the bunch.
