Fails at the first hurdle due to lack of number pad.
Although a pressure sensitive mechanical keyboard would be handy for gaming.

number pad?
I use the number pad about once a year, if that. Didn't realise anyone else did!

Apple seem to think number needs to type numbers quickly any more.
I'm not relearning 38 years of muscle memory just because they want a smaller keyboard.

I much prefer 'em.
They're easier and more accurate than using the number bar, in my experience.

completely agree
The number bar is just pretty fucking useless in every possible way, can't even have a wank with it

I take issue with that.
I've just successfully cracked one out using nothing but my number bar.
Granted, I've got spaff all over the QWE, ASD, and ZXC keys, and the tab key seems to be stuck, but other than that it was a most satisfying wank.

but what for?
On the rare occasion I enter numbers, passwords for example, it tends to be easier to use the number bar because of the integration with the rest of the password (I.e. the letters below it).
I work with numbers all day long, but in this day and age unless you're doing actual data entry, you seldom need to type numbers out.
