I see no use for the numlock key, I’d rather just have the numpad on the whole time. Are there actually cases where it is useful or people who for some reason prefer their numpad turned off?

    An easy indicator to see if a computer is on / wake it up / see if the keyboard is connected / see if a PC has crashed.

      Depends on the settings on the computer.

      I’ve seen some with USB ports powered when shut off, leave the numlock key lit.
