Hi: I am the odd ball as usual. I type letters and numbers all day at work, and I use the top row of numbers. When I was a child, i had a calculator that had the same keypad configuration as a touch tone telephone. I loved that, and if numpads were set up like that, I would probably use it, but to me, the numpad is backward. I hated stretching for those top row of keys until I started my job. I am used to using the numpad at home for JAWS commands as this keybord is set up a bit differently. Now if I could just get rid of those extra backslashes that are on it. Carlene
