I would never use the numberpad myself.

For most of my time through school, I always used laptops which didn't have the numberpad. Then, when I actually got a desktop, I found it better to use supernova's default numberpad layout for commands than the function key layout I'd been using sinse then I no longer had to keep turning the keys off to use the f keys in prorams.

so, it actualy seems weerd to me to use the numberpad for anything that is not a control in a program, since I've had laptops without it, or if I'm on a desktop, that is where all my supernova keys are.

It felt very od in terraformers having to use the numberpad to add the sounds for those puzzles.

Beware the Grue!

Hi tom,

That's really funny you say that because when it comes to me entering in my
credit card number I never even think about the number pad. I just type it
in with the numbers across the top. I hardly give the number pad a glance.
Weird really considering logically it would be far quicker to do it that
way.

Hi Charles,

Interesting you had never used the number pad until you worked there.
Seems to me that would be the logical choice for anyone wanting to enter
several numbers at a time. Sure, for quickly writing down say a date or time I'll use the top row of the keyboard but for most things like phone numbers,
credit card numbers, or any long number I'll use the number pad because it
is quicker and more efficient. That is one reason I prefer laptops with a
number pad on them.

I didn't use it because I just never had worked with it before.  Over
my lunch

period, I experimented and learned to use it.
