It doesn't have a number pad? *puzzled* What kind of laptop do you have? Mine has two different sets of numberpads - one regular above the three lines of letters, and one where I have to use the Fn-key to get the numbers. Hmmm... *still puzzled*

Hi
When I checked on Flyzoom last they seemed pretty reasonable for Xmas and that was even flying on 21st December.

Compaq Presario ..... it has the numbers above the letters, and all the function keys above those, most of which I have no idea about!... maybe I should read the instruction manual, but it's never been an issue before. One set of numbers is enough for me!

Ah wait!!! I've found the numbers hidden on the letters keys and found how to toggle them on and off with the Fn button! ...... still can't make the pound sign yet though.......

£ yey!!!!!! £££

I know! It's been such a pain the last month since I got here having to keep writing "pound' all the time..yey indeed.

Congrats!
Karma sent for figuring that out.

Thankyou, thankyou! *takes a bow*

Wow I've been living here for 7 years and have always typed "Pounds" in emails to back home!!! Thanks for the heads up!!!

BTW I find booking in advance for christmas the cheapest option. In fact it's too late now but the prices in January for the following Christmas are always fantatsic! Am considering a quick jaunt home to London myself in December but the no hand luggage rule is putting me off. Fine for adults but can't imagine keeping the kids amused for 8 hours with no toys/books....

Thanx also. I had no idea either.

Weird - the 'alt 156' doesn't work for me, I get nothing at all!

You can also use the "character map" for a "£" sign if you have windows

Start > All Programs > accessories > system tools > character map. (Select, then copy the "£" and paste away to your heart's content).

(we should all be visiting the system tools weekly anyway to access disk clean up and defrag in order to 'housework' and keep yer puters happy )

Y'know ..... I keep reading this thread title as Christmas Lights!!
