Another solution would be to buy an external numpad. I got a nice little i-Concepts mini mobile USB keypad from Beyond Sight for about $30 including shipping.

On a previous computer that I had at work, Function+Scroll-Lock locked the num pad into the on mode. Once you were done entering numbers, you would use the Function+Scroll-Lock key combination to unlock the num pad.

For mine, the keys are fn key+scroll lock to turn on the numpad. Yours may be different though.

For example, the j k l keys become 4 5 6 and the u i o become 7 8 9 and the m , . become 1 2 3. Where might the 0 be? And most importantwhat is the key combination to do this? Remember this is for a laptop.
