The best key arrangement in a laptop I have used was on HP Elitebook. All the keys were present: Insert, Delete, Home, PageUp, PageDown. The Up and Down arrow keys were half-height, that's the only problem I had with it. The worst I have ever used is Macbook Pro. It doesn't even have a delete key! And they mislabeled the backspace key as "delete" for some reason.

FYI, you can (could? I dunno now, don't use an MBP any more...) use Cmd+Backspace to simulate a Delete key.

In my five-ish years of using a Macbook Pro though, I could never get used to this in muscle memory.

It does but you have to use Fn with the delete key.
