You can plug up to 6 keyboards onto a Macintosh. Apparently nobody
from that camp has had sufficiently sick imagination by now, as I'm
unaware of even multi-user games to be played with two keyboards on the
Mac. (Although it would be rather simple.)

As a Mac can also support more than one monitor, it could even be made
into a multi-terminal. Would need a new keyboard/mouse driver though,
that differentiates input from the different ADB devices.
