 When I was a kid I tho't that the keypad was
incredibly lame because it
didn't have a comma key.  The only thing I would ever use it for would have
been typing in numbers in DATA statements so it seems like a dumb idea.  
Well, as someone who learned 10-key touch before I learned to type, the
idea of a comma on the keypad does not seem so obvious.  More important was
the plus, minus, and period keys, for true data entry.
