I would like to know if I setup my AL15" to use a
20"
Wacom Mouse
and the Apply BT keyboard
if I can use it in closed lid mode?

Anyone have a similar setup?
If a group of mimes are miming a forest and one falls down, does he make a sound?

Plug everything in, close the lid, and hit a key and it should wake up. Also, check out the recent Apple Bluetooth update that improves wake from sleep support for HID devices (mice and keyboards).

Can't speak for that particular mouse but the Apple Wireless Keyboard does indeed work while the unit is closed. It also will wake the closed, sleeping unit when a key is pressed.

Good deal on the BT keyboard. The wacom mouse should be no problem.
Thanks!
