[Sderby] Short Keyboard?

I had to hacksaw some bits off of a a couple of PCI cards once cause 
there were bits on the motherboard, so a key board should be alright. 
Most likely it is membrane type. When you cut things such as PCB ensure 
no burrs make contact etc.
There should be no problem with "loose" connections, just ensure that 
none of the PCB connections go anywhere useful

P.S. I was jokingly going to suggest a hacksaw!
