Num lock Why is it even there these days?

what a worthless piece of key that num lock is. The only function I've ever found for it is to mess up my 10 key skills (which by the way are awesome). the way that I see it is that back when keyboards were invented, there was some purpose. But now that we are past Word Perfect 1.0 I think we should abolish all num lock keys from the face of the earth.

With that said I'll be surprised if anyone ever sets their eyes upon this blog. I mean who wants to read about a star wars loving, Harry Potter reading, Pre-dental ... stuyding, geek like me? If you do that's great. If not, it's you're freaking loss.
