Laptop Keyset?
This seems kind of a lame question to ask.. but what is the direction keys in the alternate key set... I heard somewhere that its for laptops or keyboards w/o numpad... but no-where can I find the actual key set... Am I missing something?

Yeah, with the laptop keyset, i find it more reliable to select items via their letter as opposed to up/down menu actions... and FLUFFY, did you have 'use alternate keyset' checked in the preferences?
