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

:p


7) I have a numpad // i let my fingers deside what to use

Numpad ftw. I only ever use the horizontals for strat games and !"£$%^&*() ofc :).

I reckon that if people had three hands then they'd use numpad a lot more... two hands on the keys and one on the numpad.

Also, if I'm programming stuff like $var == 0 then I use the horizontal, it's waaay closer :).

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

There are too many choices for that, it's either yes or no :p.

-> Thats me.

Like Cookie, and others, I get rather annoyed in situations where i can't use a number pad. I think part of my hate for the horizontal numbers is the fact that when I touch-type, I don't use the proper fingers on the proper keys, and therefore have a hard time finding them quickly. (I have to look down).

Well, if I'm just typing a regular message like a forum post, I use the horizontal number keys. I use the numpad when I'm entering lots of numbers (into a spreadsheet or something), or when it's more convenient (my hand is closer). :P

Same as me really :P
Same :)
