In Windows it's Control PanelMousePointer Options Show location of

I've never found it useful though, as I prefer to set a larger cursor
and maybe turn on cursor trails.

Not directly like it, but there are a whole bunch of options for the icon 
that is the mouse pointer, and you can pick one that is very large and easily 
picked up if you jiggle the mouse.  It doesn't always work, since even then 
there are some circumstances in which the mouse pointer becomes a thin line 
drawing that is hard to pick up.
