There is a keyboard that lets you move the number pad to the left already - it's called the sidewinder. I think I may have seen other keyboards with this feature as well (especially gaming keyboards). I actually like this keyboard better than the dell one now that I have been using it a bit - the keys just seem a bit snappier. But then it is newer. :) Thanks for stopping by!

I get your point. Still one could always write to Dell & suggest they make a keyboard that has the numeric pad on the left. (from a Left-hander's POV : this would be great) but I am afraid lefties like me are in the minority. Still, I suspect Leonardo would solved the issue another way. (given his mirror writing). He would have turned the keyboard upside down. Not quite the same...but you get the picture ;) Aqua Ahhh.

Since I've been using the smaller keyboard, no more wrist pain. :) The problem with the dell is that I have to reach too far for the mouse- which makes my wrist hurt.

As the Romans used to say, "we may agree on everything but taste". I use the Dell keyboard as pictured. I find it one of the most ergonomically well designed keyboards out there. Yet, if i may be so bold, what baffles me, is your need for the numeric pad, when you already have one built into the Dell Keyboard. I must be missing the point... Oh well.. Cheers Aqua I dunno Karin.
