Hi all,

I am looking to buy a Macbook, or at a stretch a Macbook Pro, specifically with a French Keyboard (Azerty layout), and French OS X.

I already have a MBP c2d as my daily machine, so this is a second machine I will be using for fun only, so the cheaper the better! I am open to any Macbook model as long as there is some Applecare left (So I can buy an extended Applecare)

I am in Holland atm, but can pick up in France, and willing to pay cash for the right one!

Drop me a PM or Email if you have anything for sale that fits the bill!

Many Thanks,

TPC

Just a suggestion.... you could just buy a cheap macbook anywhere (used or new)... and then switch the language to french. then pry off the keys and switch it yourself. or... see if there's a local mac shop that will order you the french keyboard instead of whatever you have on it.

After you figure out how to really do it right... it gets easy. I'm quite the pro at prying keyboard keys now... but it's not for everyone.

You can replace the top case of a MacBook yourself... it's pretty easy if you follow directions... (from ifixit.com)
