If your aim was to power a PC then you wouldn't use a normal keyboard. Why not have something much like a typewriter of old, with a long travel distance for the key? Instead of moving a stamp on a stick, use that kenetic energy to generate power instead. Surely you could get a lot more power out it it that way.
