Alternatively, you could just buy some numeric keypads (see here: &nbsp;<a href="http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/category/category_slc.asp?CatId=536&name=Keypads" rel="ugc">http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/category/category_slc.asp?CatId=536&name=Keypads</a> )<br />

Then, you could use absolutely the cheapest, junkiest laptops you could find, without worrying about whether they have their own numeric keypads.<br />

I have some data processing station that I want to equip with dirt cheap XP laptops with number keys. &nbsp;<br />
<br />
There is a lot of number keying and my area is prone to power outages so the battery (even if it only lasts for 10 mins while the genny kicks in) avoids me having to buy a battery backup.<br />
<br />
I don;t care about drive space, graphics, screen size...<br />
<br />
<br />
It needs 4 usb ports, a number pad and be able to run XP pro. &nbsp;Any suggestions&gt; &nbsp;Hoping to $100-200 price range on ebay.

A laptop or notebook is a portable personal computer with a clamshell form factor, suitable for mobile use. Although originally there was a distinction between laptops and notebooks, the former being bigger and heavier than the latter, there is often no longer any difference. Laptops are commonly used in a variety of settings, such as at work, in education, and for personal multimedia. A laptop combines the components, inputs, outputs and capabilities of a desktop computer, including the display screen, speakers, a keyboard, and pointing devices (such as a touchpad or trackpad) into a single unit. The device can be powered either from a rechargeable battery or by mains electricity from an AC adapter.
