[NMLUG] numlock ON
> numlock NO. I know of ten-key bookkeepers who like nl on but they are

Well, I like numlock on for doing my bookkeeping in Gnucash . . . :-)
It's WAY faster to type numbers on the 10-key -- for me, it's faster to move
over to the 10 key and type a number than to type it above the letters, even
if it's just a phone number. And if you ever use a software calculator on
your computer, 10-key is much faster for that, too.
If you use KDE, you can change per-user whether numlock is on or off in the
Control Center under Peripherals -> Keyboard.
If you use GNOME, it looks like it's a little harder, but this page might help
you: http://www.linuxgazette.com/book/view/395
Hooray for the choice of having numlock on or off! :-D
