I don't think so.  I have a cdev called MenuTuner which can allegedly
change the PRAM values associated with drag and hierarchical popup
delays, but I haven't yet gotten it to allow me to change them.

The cdev appears to not like my Mac.  It displays one blank window, and
a window with instructions and values, but I can't change the values
in the boxes.  Since it uses color, I don't think the cdev is incompatible
with the Mac II.

Anyway, I can send this to anyone who wants it, though I think I found
it on sumex.
