Numpad forces you to move the more important piece of input equipment - mouse - further away. And with a properly aligned keyboard (none pictured in the article) it's better to have numpad near your right hand home row keys anyway to use with a modifier. Even more so for the cursor keys - instead of having to move your wrist back&forth you could just use the home row keys for that
- autoexecbat 2y agoThey should put the numpad on the left side then, people can learn to hit numbers with left hand, I used to do this with a dedicated usb numpad
- eviks 2y agoBut why would you need to relearn that when you can continue to use your right hand in a better position???
