Yeah, the kbreset pin is in turn connected to reset on the CPU, on the custom chips, etc.

So any reset is ok, that was the first document I thought of.. And of course there's plenty of ground to choose from.

A pin grid is a good idea, then you can easily remove the motherboard later if need be.

I personally like using PLCC sockets that are flipped upside down and plugged over the chips. Just solder the wires to the feet of the socket. (the kbd controller is bound to have a ground connection too, look at the schematics)
