I love having the numpad available. It's just such a better way to enter numbers and do calculations.

That's what an Fn key is for. You can add a numeric keypad right under where the user's hand already is. No need to make everyone type with their hands way off to the side.

Fn option is Not nearly as good. Keys aren't lined up correctly and you cant tell where you are by feel.
