   The keyboard seems like an awkward place for the mobo. It's easier   
   imho to use the monitor as the foundation and fasten the Pi to the   
   back of it. Some Pi cases have keyed mounting holes that hang   
   the case neatly on wood or sheetmetal screws set in a (carefully   
   chosen non-interfering) convenient spot. Cables and keyboards are   
   thus standard, ventilation is decent. The Pi is as safe as the   
   monitor against mechanical mishap or abuse.   
      
   Hope this helps,
