18% left handed
Yes, we're slowly taking over! You fools with rue the day we invent the left-handed numpad!

18% of 28 is 5.04. So what, 4 and a pregnant employee who's hopeful?

I'm curious. Can a left handed computer user switch the mouse to the left side? Do they?

What about me ?? :( I write with left, play tennis with right, ping pong with my left, cut with a knife right/left, throw a ball with right. Am i left handed, right handed or just confused as to what the hell left and right is ?
(i can do most things both left and right handed except anything that takes strenght, that is left for my right hand **pun intended**)

My mother in law is left handed and both of her kids ended up right handed. I have 3 right handed children, but from the minute they are born until they start to write she is always looking for signs of them being left handed. It drives me nuts.

Actually a left-hand numpad wouldn't be so bad, it'd let me have my keyboard more properly centred to the screen (without pushing the mouse too far away).
Dammit now I want a left-hand numpad keyboard!!!

That's only slightly above the global average (11%) and can easily be hand waved by claiming a low sample size. Sorry, lefties. You're still second class citizens.

Honestly, as a right-handed individual, I would love a left-handed numpad. Keepin' my mouse in hand while I type numbers just sounds...comfy.

Hey if the figures of serial killers working here are that low, I'm happy. Now if only the user base was that low.
