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,
