I appreciate the answer!!

Another question... most of the time, when I am hired to work for someone, another person is also working. When they start, especially when plowing, they go across the field diagonally rather than row at a time. Is there some advantage in doing it that way?

And... what is the best mouse or other device to use to increase your plowing speed? Mine is on the slow side and of course, I am totally run over by the speed demons.

What direction you harvest or plow in doesn't matter as long as you are going in straight rows or columns one way isn't any faster then the other. Now as for the mouse if you are using a lab top I would get a wireless mouse instead of using the built in mouse it will be faster, other then that I don't think the mouse makes much difference unless it is old and doesn't work right. Now for the speed demons well some people are just really fast and others well I can't say much on that but look at this thread it might explain some things. http://www.slashkey.com/forum/showthread.php?t=210470
