    oh... only way you can do that is through Apple. They keyboard does not look like it's easy to replace. I believe Apple has a few different languages for their keyboards, but only available direct.

    You'd have to exchange the whole top part of the case then (well, top half of the actual computer part) since it is not a part that is meant to be replaced. That could be costly, I'd imagine.

    One thing, though... why change keyboard? Why does it matter what the keyboard says, when you can just change the keyboard settings in the system?

    Another thing, where are you living? In the US?
    I know that Apple's are shipped all over the world, and I'm sure they have mor ehtan just hte english keyboard.
    Call them and ask them if they can put in your specific language keyboard. I'm sure they could help you.
