Apple Wireless keyboard warranty
I own a Late 2012 Mac mini and i am using third party keyboard and mouse all these years. I am going to order a $69 apple wireless keyboard from apple website.
My question is how the warranty mapped or covered as my Mac Mini warranty has already expired. I have heard recently that though keyboard is under warranty period, apple asks for a system serial #. Does that mean that if my desktop/laptop warranty is expired, i cannot claim keyboard warranty? Or is there any separate serial # for keyboard to verify warranty?
MacBook Air, OS X Mavericks (10.9.1)
