What on earth is the purpose of a Numlock key... by NOLAWitch 2002-03-20 13:33:33
...when the keyboard already has cursor keys and redundant number keys? Does anyone know how to toggle the blasted thing ON so it never goes OFF ever again in a millions years no matter how many times your stupid fingers whack it inadvertantly? Huh?

Any suggestions? It's getting so I hate typing 7s because my finger usually slips and hits the NumLock key again. Then I got no clue where the cursor goes because I've typed a PgDn instead of a 3 and a <- instead of a 4. AAAARRRGHHHHHH!

Save me from certain insanity!
