My laptop has a scroll lock key that turns the numpad on or off. My numpad is on the right hand side of the keyboard with 1-9 being jkluio789 on the keyboard. Normally you would have to press FN and the appropriate key, but with the scroll lock on you can type away.

That's convenient. I dislike the Fn key, especially when it is located on the left side of CTRL. It's troublesome sometimes.

HA! my Fn key is to the left of the Ctrl key on my IBM ThinkPad. It bothers the crap out of me and I always hit Fn instead of Ctrl unless I'm looking at that corner of the keyboard...
