Shift+8 or numpad?

[Shoeberto]

Numpad.

[Dixie]

Numpad.*agrees*

[Karl]

Shift

[Winter Nights]

I don't get it. Why would you use [shift], even if you weren't using the numpad.

[Karl]

*
to make that

[Hawkeye]

Shift

[Shlup]

I didn't even realise you could * with the numpad. Didn't think about it.

[Miriel]

Shift.

If I want to use the numpad for that with my laptop I'd have to use the Fn key anyway, so it's the same difference.

[Denmark]

shift+8 4 lief

numpad is just too far away from the rest of the keyboard for me.

[Psychotic]

I'm using a laptop so it's not like I have a choice, but when I'm using my PC I use shift.

[Hawkeye]

I'm using a laptop so it's not like I have a choice, but when I'm using my PC I use shift.
Wait...

[RSL]

I guess I probably do the shift thing in the rare event that I even need a *

[Winter Nights]

*
to make that
Oh, okay. I have a laptop and using [Fn] to enable the numpad is a hassle, so [shift].

[rubah]

the number pad is for communists and secretaries.

[RSL]

What about Secretaries of the World?

[kikimm]

I didn't even realise you could * with the numpad. Didn't think about it.

[Apollo]

I don't even know you anymore!

[Samuraid]

Shift + 8 generally. :(

[nik0tine]

Same here, and even on a regular keyboard it is shift for me.

[Primus Inter Pares]

*uses the numpad to make stars around this post*

[Faris]

Shift+8! <3
I agree with TomTomTomTom!

[Rye]

Shift. :D

[Xaven]

Shift + 8 = *

[Yamaneko]

I copy and paste from the character map. :cool:

[Rusty]

Shift+8.

[Mitch]

Holy Christmas I didn't know I could * with the numpad.

Meh, it's too far away from where my hands usually are (not my crotch) for me to start now so I will say shift+8

[Leeza]

Shift + 8 is much easier and more convenient for me. :cat:

[Vyk]

Well I just tried to be funny and do ascii, but apparently in the new FireFox Alt+Numpad = Hotkeys o_O; I'll have to look into that... Anyway, I'm a shifter person...

[Primus Inter Pares]

All these shifty people make me scared, you should all be ashamed of yourselves.

[eestlinc]

If I'm at work doing SQL queries and whatnot and using a lot of numbers (which is all the time) I user the number pad. If I'm typing mostly text, then I usually use shift+8.

The lack of a number pad is why most laptops suck.

[Karl]

the lack of number pad is the single reason i am impelled to get a laptop :p

[Slade]

I use shift for everything....didn't even realize their WAS a right side of the keyboard. Wow.....you DO learn something new everyday!

[DMKA]

Neither.

[Yuffie514]

the laptop doesn't give me any chances, but i'm used to pressing "Shift ___" anyway. i'm a slow learner at times...

[Tasura]

Shift+8, on a laptop it is a hasstle, and on a pc im jsut to lazy.

[Agent Proto]

shift+8

I rarely use the numpad when typing. That's reserved for the calculator.

[Drift]

both

[Old Manus]

I never use the numpad because I have to bring my arm over approximately 3.1 inches which uses up 0.0053 more of my body's energy than if I were to use the numbers at the top which means that I will need to get a drink 0.02 seconds earlier and not work to the body's optimum efficiency

[Channing]

Shift+8.

[Shaun]

I rarely use the numpad.

[Levian]

Neither. Norwegian keyboards apparantly has its own button for that sign. :cool:

[Sare]

Neither. Norwegian keyboards apparantly has its own button for that sign. :cool:

Same with the Finnish keyboards :)

[Neco Arc]

laptop = shift...

[Loony BoB]

:shifty:

It's less effort for a touch typist to do Shift+8 than it is to drag your hand over to the other end of the keyboard.

[Craig]

I use * to make a *.

Oh, wait.

[Anaisa]

Shift+8. Im not going near that num pad unless I have to.

[Mirage]

Shift. But not 8, I don't use an English keyboard.

[Jess]

I'm using a laptop so it's not like I have a choice, but when I'm using my PC I use shift.

SNAP! Psy, you're a *! not a star, an asterisk >=(
