Simple Entry, QWERTY keyboard. That's my system, and I'm stickin' to it.

Something like this? These are measure-attached text expressions, which have the advantage over the text tool of automatically aligning to the staff. Once you define one of these, you can easily copy it and make a set of numbers. The text is 36-point Palantino.
