That's your decision. I don't have an opinion either way, since I use a
full-sized DAW and a full-size keyboard.
The good folks at Dancing Dots may be able to help you with that if you call
them.

Barbie,
Here's some info from the Dancing Dots web site:
. Even if you use CakeTalking on a laptop PC you must set the JAWS Keyboard
Layout to "Desktop" (Jaws/Options/Basics/Use Keyboard Layout).
. For best results when using CakeTalking on your laptop, Dancing Dots
recommends that you use a full-size PC Keyboard as many important CakeTalking
functions
are easily controlled by keystrokes from the num-pad. USB or wireless PC
keyboards are relatively inexpensive. Some customers have had success with
auxiliary
num-pad attachments but others have not so try before you buy! However,
starting with the release of CakeTalking for SONAR 7, there are now alternate
keystrokes
that trigger certain functions formerly only accessible from the num-pad so
having a full-size num-pad is now more of a convenience than a necessity.

Does the laptop I purchase have to have the numpadd keys to work with cake
talking? Thanks in advance.
