That makes it harder to type, because the keyboard buttons have to be smaller. :redface:

NO! they are normal, the only diference to a 17" is that that between the key board and the end of the laptop theres only 2 mm.
I gave very importance to that due to GTA, how would I play GTA without a numpad?

Its a Ailien ware.. they are expencive, but the computer didnt seem so special..
