Why do so many of their laptops have numpads? I don’t want to type with my hands offset to the left I want to type straight on, no numpad, centralised letters.
:)) It was a French who mentioned it. I thought there was a reason beyond just preference. Even so, people can prefer whatever they want. There are so many types of keyboards. Slimbook offers a lot of layouts. If someone wants one without the numpad, maybe should write an email snd maybe they can get it. I recently ordered a laptop from there snd I had a lot of back snd forth in the emails with them, because I needed their advice to decide. They are very helpful.
I don’t mind numpads per say - on a desktop keyboard it’s fine, I guess. Even I personally won’t be using them, at least they don’t get too much in the way. I can touch type numbers just fine on the top row. I don’t like to move my hands from the home row if I can help it, least of all for numeric input. And I also hate offset typing, feels like driving a car with the pedals off to one side of your seat, bad ergo.
But I guess if numpads on laptops are your thing, it’s great for you.

I will not buy a laptop or a keyboard without a numpad. Can’t type numbers quickly on the top row. I guess there are more like me.

Choice would be nice. Also a trackpoint.
I also want the numpads. I read somewhere that if you have a French keyboard, it is a must to have it. I don’t remember why.
The french just like numbers ok. Don’t be weird about it…they do not like it when you mention it.

Probably because on a French keyboard you need to press Shift to access the numbers. You don’t have a direct access like qwerty.
Ah, yes! I think that was the reason. Thanks!
Yeah horses for courses right?
