Bill, can you get hold of a manual for the laptop? Checking key assignments might well give you the definitive answer as to whether the unit has an embedded numeric keyboard.

Kevin,

I do understand that the laptop permits bypassing the numeric keypad, but I 
found it very much easier to be able to transpose the keys I already knew to
the imbedded numeric pad.  I am grateful for the
laptop layout but would prefer the imbedded numeric pad if it were available.  
You are right, though, the laptop layout works well.

Best regards,

Steve Jacobson

The whole point of the laptop layout is to bypass the built in numpad.
It works quite well.

I'm not sure, but I fear that this is a trend to no longer support
the NUMPAD on laptops.  I have the same issue with an HP laptop that
I just purchased,
but the laptop layout isn't bad.  My HP only allows access to the
INSERT key with the FN key, so I'm very thankful for the CAPSLOCK
modifier.  Still, I
wonder why there would be a decision to do away with the imbeded
numeric pad.  That worked great for me on my Dell and on my Asus
netbook as well
as on most other computers.

Best regards,

Use the laptop layout.
That bypasses the numpad altogether.

Hi all,
Just bought a Lenovo Laptop today and can't get the mouse keys to work.
I have been using a Del laptop and using the function plus     the
various keys rather than a mouse pad.
Doesn't seem to work on the Lenovo though. Holding the function key
and pressing any of the other keys gives me no speech at all.
Thanks for any help.
Bill
