Here's a #68k CPU family portrait: one of the oldest (68000) and one of the youngest (68060). I'm always surprised at how big the “Texas Cockroach” actually feels on one's hand!

The main reason to have a DIP-64 #68k is that it can be plugged in a breadboard and it's an actually powerful processor (for its time) and not just a microcontroller with a few kilobytes of memory.
