is it really?
how are we suppose to use the numpad keys to move the mouse around
on the screen and other wineyes tasks if we can not turn off the num lock keys?
the number pad has to be turned off before these functions will work.

Getting away from the old style layout is, in my opinion, a wonderful idea.
Not only is relying on a num pad which might not always be there
risky but constantly moving your hands over to the num pad is
extremely inefficient.
Use your hands on the home row.

Hello,
It is my understanding that new Dell desktop keyboards do not have a
numlock key.
If you have an old keyboard from a previous computer just connect that
one.
Another thought would be to use the laptop layout. This moves all mouse
navigation keys off of the numpad onto the main keyboard.
