That's very true. It makes another thing that we have to add to the list of what we check when we buy a computer: whether the keyboard has the right keys, all of them! Also, where they are on the keyboard! Ugh! Pam.

Seems like everything is getting smaller, shorter, Thinner, and often
missing something, that once was part of the item.  In this case,
someone has decided to lower the cost of manufacturing, by removing a
Key or two, or three.

This time it is the Num Lock key, and it is probably true, that few
ever use it.

Just proving, you can't really assume much of anything these days.


After a while, a person just gets tired of always having to double
and triple check everything.

My brother got a new computer with a keyboard that has a number pad.  At
the place where the numlock key should be, his keyboard has a delete key
and he only has numeric function of the keypad, Does anyone on this list
have any ideas as to whether there is a numlock key somewhere?  Will his
only option for using mouse keys be to use the laptop layout?  Thank
you.  I am sorry, but this is the only information I have about his
system except that it is running Windows 7.

Carol
