Still have a T40p here. Same problem.. not enough USB ports!
One of them seemed to go kaput.

Similar story here.. I had a "spare" iMac G3 full-size keyboard
with a numeric keybad that had 2 USB ports. I used that for
extra USB purposes - plus I liked the handy numeric keypad for
data entry of receipts.
But.. I fear that in my case, the friend would need a powered
hub.
