not so much when you say it like that ;p
Let's see. 1/4 of a mile basically which is a 1/4 of 5,280 feet which equals around 1,300 feet more or less. My computer screen seems to be about a foot and a half from left to right so that means I would have to move the mouse about 1,000 times left and right to do that. LOL that's crazy. It sounds a lot to me.

What I don't understand is how does it measure it. Does it record where on my screen it stops and then if I move it six inches records that? How does it know how much six inches is?

My head is going to explode.
