2 keyboards, 2 monitors, one mouse, IR and bluetooth (assuming you mean 
a vdr box since you're talking about configuration via ssh) ...
Now you know at least one :)

Btw, I think this is a nice project and I really don't understand your 
point in making it look bad. If you dont like it then dont use it.

Did you ever try to do kernel development and alike? I'm sure if you did 
then you'd appreciate the possibilities of running stuff inside virtual 
machines like vmware. Its for sure a nice project to develop / debug 
stuff (which you obviously wont do on a stb).
