Haha, I like that idea. That should be my goal over next summer. :)

My iMac has 3 USB ports, does that mean 127 keyboards per port, or is
that the total number that USB will recognize?

First, it's not 127. USB allows for 127 devices. But that includes hubs. Using 18 hubs you can connect 109 keyboards to one port. IF the 3 USB ports on the computer are separate USB busses then you could use 327 keyboards. AFAIK most if not all Macs have a separate bus for each port but it's possible some use an internal hub.

Someone needs to do this for giggles. Go for a Guinness book record
and have 127 people trying to type all at one time on the computer.
