Depending on the programs and specific application the separate number keypad can be very important for some users. That bit of added utility is usually what separate wider keyboards from their narrower counterparts.

In any case, I can't see the logic of replacing the computer over this. Of course, if/when the time comes to replace it, then keyboard width would be one of the factors to consider, along with weight and of course functional capabilities.
