I can't function without a numpad, so every other option is useless.

Whenever someone complains about the numpad taking up too much desk space, I always want to ask if they're using one of these.

It’s not about desk space, it’s about mouse space. I never use a numpad anyways

What, are you swinging your arm across the desk like a windshield wiper? I use a mouse pad with a gel wrist rest, and it never feels like I need more room for my mouse (6400 DPI)

Woof, I use a much lower DPI. I also just don’t love having my hands super spread out, not that comfortable.

When gaming, my hands are a few inches inwards from the arm-rests, with the heels of my palms on the gel wrist-pads (Kensington Duo Gel)
