Depends, for just 1 or 2 numbers I use the horizontal bar, but for big numbers, like 158876245892 I use the numpad. Horizontal bar is just closer and faster for small numbers, but the numpad is faster and easier for large numbers.

Same as me really

Crap... can't undo my vote.
I'm using my NumPad too, it's just lots easier.

Usually NumPad but when the conditions are right, it's the horizontal pad that I use.

Exactly the same here...

I cant use the horizontal one, i dunno why but i just cant, i can type faster on the num pad thabn i can at normal typing...


and i typed most of this while watching the tv at the same time

I use the Horizontal pad the most because I find it easier.

If I am typing a message, and the number is fairly short, then i'll use the horizontal numberpad because its nearer to where my fingers are and the number won't take that long to enter. However, if I am typing in a phone number, or using Excel or something, i'll use the numpad.

Most of the time Horizontal Pad but sometimes i use the Numpad.

I think the poll should be way more interesting (and a trend will be seen) if it was:

1) I have a numpad // I mostly type (almost) blindly and/or with 10 fingers // I use the horizontal numbers the most

2) I have a numpad // I mostly type (almost) blindly and/or with 10 fingers // I use the numpad the most

3) I have a numpad // I type with only a few fingers // I use the horizontal numbers the most

4) I have a numpad // I type with only a few fingers // I use the numpad the most

5) I do not have a numpad // I mostly type (almost) blindly and/or with 10 fingers

6) I do not have a numpad // I type with only a few fingers



PS: I almost never ever use the horizontal keys (and I curse a lot when I'm using a laptop)
