The simplest trick I've ever seen is a small elastic band wrapped
around the pin of the key-switch, between the key-cap and the housing
of the switch. If you press hard, the key will still operate, but it
wont work when pressed accidentally. (I've seen this trick used on an
old Apple ][ keyboard to prevent accidental use of the RESET key.)
