Thanks to all that explained the extra FM key for me. I was aware that it 
was possible to turn the right hand side of the keyboard on a laptop in to a 
numpad, but I thought this was from using a double press of the shift key or 
something; I haven't experimented with this, as my laptop has a full numpad 
already -

| Hi Andy, this is the FN key, and is used to simulate a numeric keypad,
| as well as providing shortcuts to hardware-related features, which are
| specific to your laptop. Hope that helps.
