Can you give us an idea of the desktop (server rack?) space you have to work with?
Since a Newton Keyboard apparently won't work, I wonder if an older ADB-type keyboard might. The IIGS keyboard leaps to mind here, as it has a very small footprint and can usually be got for not much money. This assumes you have an iMate on hand that would allow you to make use of ADB devices. I believe (though perhaps someone else can confirm) the iMate will work with 10.4.X
An Apple Adjustable Keyboard might be a good fit, too, though I'm not sure about the longevity of those. The then-novel "split" design seemed to result in a short service life for those keyboards.
Best,
James Fraser
