In this case, you'd prefer that it was off. Your post helped me figure out how to do the this too, so thank you.

I can imagine it would get annoying for laptop users to have to turn it off every time they wanted to type. it probably has to do with the fact that a lot of laptops use some keys as a numpad when numlock is on.
