Agreed. I recall rescuing a 5000 series CPU board from some systems being retired. The boards had originally cost ~50K GBP each and consisted of four seperate 12" x 16" boards bolted together in a 3" thick stack. The boards had several MCUs including M68k plus lots of 74series logic chips (numbers approximate - it was a long time ago).
