In-Store Mac Pro Customization

[-BigMac-]

Hi guys,
going to pick up a new Mac Pro this week. They have it in-store, i asked. Forgot to ask them one question.. can i choose to take out the wired keyboard and change it with a wireless one?

Anyone tried doing this? I don't particularly want to do a CTO for a simple keyboard swap.

Thanks

I have never tried it, but I would think it would not hurt to ask.

yea i dont have time to visit an Apple store before wednesday (when i'm buying it), and their phonelines are always '+8 people infront of me in waiting' so i gave up on calling them after about 10 minutes of waiting

Wouldnt want to go there on wednesday only to find out i have to CTO. Would dieeeee

If it was any other store I would say no but Apple are famously accommodating (and probably more so if you've just spent thousands on a Mac Pro).
Then again, if you can afford said thousands, just buy the bluetooth keyboard separately and keep the wired as a spare!

I hope they are
That is not a bad idea.. but i'm planning to spend the left over $300 on some extra ram
If they aren't accommodating then i might just have to cancel my purchase

This. I had my BT module act up once, so if I didn't have the wired one in the closet, I would have been stuck until Best Buy opened the following day to buy a wired one.

I did a similar thing recently when I purchased an iMac from my local Apple Store.

I wanted a full keyboard with number pad. The iMac came with the basic
wireless keyboard.

They sold me the full keyboard and then credited me the amount so it
cost $0. I actually left with both keyboards because the original was left
in the iMac box
