I'm comfortable with dedicated keypad on the left of a keyboard rather than right, because of the right is where mouse locates. Don't you?

My keyboard and mouse are actually pretty far apart from each other so for me a dedicated keypad on the left wouldn't really work, especially since when i use it i do so mostly with my right hand. Interesting suggestion though, it hadn't crossed my mind yet to try that.

In the past I've often worked with my mouse to the left. But when I do that I like to switch the mouse buttons as well, and then it's a hassle when someone else uses the mouse. Nevertheless, it's an option.
