[RWP] Interesting problem recording with Reaper

Sun Dec 4 00:13:40 EST 2011

That's my main gripe with netbooks, the integrated numpad can be made to 
work with the screenreader, but I never really felt comfortable with it 
during my small experience with a netbook.
I remember I had to do some odd stretches to get fingers on the key that 
would be the zero or insert key on a real numPad, which was way off the 
qwerty group; then reach the j k l or whatever substituted for the rest 
of the num pad with other fingers.
Felt like a circus contortionist! smile.
