	Nahhh.  Sometimes you want the accuracy (say somebody is tracing
a curve) even if the system is loaded.   When I want to handle mousemove at
program speed rather than message port speed, I simply flag the move and the
last coordinates and handle it after GetMsg() returns NULL... easy.

	Checkout the source to FILES on mod sources for an example.
