HI..
 BB> HelpPC (v2.11 by David Jurgens, CompuServe 71270,2422) a TSR
 BB> (shareware) popup assembly lang. helper says
 BB> the keyboard controller port is 060  (060-06F) more info is in the
 BB> program.
The _keyboard_ is port $60
The _8042 keyboard controller_ is port $64
Which one you write to depends on what keyboard-related function you want... 
for example, you access port 60 to control the K/B LED's, repeat rates, etc 
whilst you access port 64 to control A20, reset, PS/2 mouse etc.
