If I put the cursor on one monitor, and then start using another mouse on another monitor, does the cursor leave its position on the first?

YES

If I go back and use the first mouse, will the cursor appear where I left it?

NO

Would this benefit me at all running several monitors?

Only if you like the option of choosing your weapon. I have been doing it for about a day now and really like it. It depends on your desk layout and your work space. I like the option of being able to change my position and use a different mouse. Both the mouse and the trackball have advantages depending on what you are doing.

BTW The cursor moves very quickly if you adjust movement speed and acceleration. I set the acceleration high on the track ball to get around quickly with a small rotation of the ball. I also can exit one side of the screen and enter the other, could be handy on multiple monitors.
