As a way to optimize the use of the computer keyboard, two considerations:

1- due to the angle of the keys it is easier to use the numeric pad as the black keys and the QWERTY row as the whites
2- this leaves the ASD row for another set of blacks and ZXCV for new whites :D

Than the numpad or the F# keys could be used for shortcuts..

Also:

The two sets of white+black keys could be set separatedly, so you could place one in the part played by the right hand and another for the left hand, or all next to each other (maybe with one or 2 keys overlap so as to keep the blacks in the same place)

Also, when you press CTRL+ALT+Z it should make apple pie appear next to the keyboard

lol, seriously though, what you guys think about: using all the keys 0-9 and the letters, as WHITE keys, and than ctrl+key = playin the associated black key xD

That would not work for songs where you play a white note and a black one. (Playing more than one note at once.)
