    Is it possible to get a "national" keyboard (i.e. with national letters alongside with latin ones) if ordering a laptop in the US?

    If by "national" you mean Russian, then I doubt it. Even though this isn't a great solution, some stores carry stickers for your keyboard that have the language of your choice.
