I do. I like to have a compact laptop directly under the centre of a larger monitor.
I touch type and want to keep everything symmetrical around a central point.
I avoid using mice or keyboards with numeric keypads because I try to reduce the amount of off one sided movements.
I try to drive everything from the keyboard and from the homerow if I can.
If I really have to use a mouse, moving my right hand a few centimetres to use a trackpad is, for me, much more ergonomic than a larger movement to reach past a numeric keypad for a mouse.
