It's always been easy to get Windows to start with the NumLock featured enabled. This was often (always?) set in the BIOS. Is there any way to do this with Apple keyboards? (Mine's by Logitech; it doesn't have a key actually labeled, "NumLock," but the key in the position traditionally occupied by NumLock on non-Apple keyboards [here labeled "clear"] actually functions as the NumLock key in Windows running in Parallels. I always have to tap that before the numeric keypad will function in Windows.)
