Hi Andy!
I am not very knowledgeable concerning processors however, it seems to work 
well. It is new and I do not have everything on it yet. I have used it to 
transfer books to my Bookport and it seems to work well. I will know more once 
I begin using it for school.

Hope

.Hello Hope,
.
.Curious!  What do you think of the AMD Turion 64 processor?  I have seen
.it mentioned often in ads for Circuit City and Comp USA.  I wonder how
.it compares to intel processors like the Pentium M, Core Solo, Core Duo,
.etc.

.Hi Annette!
.I lied to you unintentionally. I looked at several computers which
.included a Numlock pad. The one I purchased is an HP. It cost $1,000
.after the rebate. It has an AMD Turion 64 processor.  It has an 80 Gig
.hard drive and one Gig of RAM. It weighs about five to 8 pounds. It is
.large it has a 17 inch wide screen. It has a built in wireless internet
.card. 
.
.Hope that helps. We purchased it at Circuit City.
.
.Smile.

..Hi Annette!
..I have a Lap Top I think it is a Dell or Toshiba. It has a numpad. It
.has .windows XP media so I did have to purchase the JAWS professional.
.It seems .to be working well.

...Unfortunately I don't, sorry about that.  I have always figured that a
..number pad was just that.

...David,

...Do you have any recommendations for an external number pad? I've
.bought 2 ..and neither would work with JAWS in the Numlock off mode.

...You could also purchase an external USB number pad for such purposes.

...Clifford,
...
...Interesting recommendation of finding a laptop with a built-in num
.pad.
...I've been using laptops for almost 20 years, before laptops had hard
..drives.
...I use the JAWS desktop keyboard layout on the laptop. I access the num
.pad ..with the laptop's function key. This is not always the best
.option, but I'm ..very used to it. However, I do use a variety of
.external keyboards. My ..favorite for travel is the Flexi-keyboard. It
.is light-weight and takes up ..very little room in my backpack. It does
.take some getting used to, but the ..newer models provide you with much
.more tactile feedback. 
...
...Given that I often work with a variety of different types of assistive
...technology, I have found HP's to not be up to the job. I used
.Toshiba's for ..years, but now find that Dell's can handle pretty much
.anything that I .throw .at it.

...Dear list members:
...I have a H. P. zd 8000 which sits on my desk at the office and
.functions ..much like a desk top, as it has the numeric keypad built
.right in. This ..machine is large with a 17 inch screen and weighs eight
.pounds or so. The ..batter life is relatively short also. Do any of you
.know of a lap-top which ..also has the numeric key pad built in, but
.which is lighter and with longer ..than an hour battery life?
...Annette, I would suggest looking at the H. P. zd series of computers,
.if ..your use will be primarily at the office. The built in key pad is
.great .when .using Jaws.
...
...Yours Truly,
...
...Clifford Wilson
