To find out just how many keys could be fitted onto a laptop, I drew out a rough plan. The key pitch on the paper is 19mm, exactly the same as on all three laptops that I had to hand (MacBook Air 13", Dell E5470 14", Thinkpad E480 14"). You can see the results attached below - without rotating the columns away from vertical you could easily fit in _at least_ 80 keys (allowing some to be half height like standard laptop function keys). Rotating the columns would reduce this of course.
