My MacBook has a function [fn] key on the lower left of the keyboard.
Some keys have tiny characters indicating alternate uses. The trackpad
can be used for scrolling by using two fingers. You can remap simple
commands/functions with the Keyboard & Mouse System Preference, or remap
everything in the Terminal.
Page up = fn + up arrow
Page down = fn + down arrow
Home = fn + left arrow
End = fn + right arrow
Delete right = fn + delete
There's a full numeric keypad in the middle right of the keyboard, and a
num lock key. Get out your magnifying glass to see the numbers. Page 33:

I remember using something with keyboard101 in Windows to completely
remap the keyboard. I don't know where it is in XP but it's probably
buried there somewhere--and it may not work on the MBP. Try Input
Remapper instead, http://www.olofsson.info/index.html?inputremapper.html
