Long title, huh. I use the top numbers, I'm just used to it. P.S. Omi said in my other forum that we are running out of things to talk about and that this would be the next topic so I decided to make it.

Ok i made the title shorter, as it was a bit big, also, try not to make too many of these

i personlally and like most people use the ones above letters if im only typing a few, if im doing heavy number work, the num-pad is what i use

I am the same as you, but I have only done alot of number work once. P.S. Is there a button that locks the right number pad because i tried typing on it and it didn't do anything.

Even for inputting numerical strings? I use the number pad when I want to enter a lot of numbers very quickly.

HaHaHaHaHa...I wasn't serious! But why not.

I use the number pad 90% of the time. I know that it takes more effort so I'm not sure why I do but hey, it seems easier.

I use X and Y (I forgot which one) but sometimes I accidently move the cursor up. P.S. Doing that made me die once.

D00d, just buy a USB number pad if you really want/need one. They're tiny and very portable.

most laptops have an number pad under the keyboard anyway, just hold function.
I know it's stupid and annoying to use, but I didn't know if you were aware of it.

Both.
Num Pad when I'm using the calculator, or entering a PIN Number, or in some cases, a password.

Everything else, the others.

Numlock on a proper PC keyboard, but on a laptop just the numbers at the top.

Its called a numpad. Numlock is the annoying key that turns it off. And I use the top keays for typing posts and passwords and stuff, but for solely numerical stuff, I use the numpad.
