I'd suggest to get the application notes from Motorola. They show
example schematics and give some details on programming. Motorola
also has a BBS where you can download example software including
the monitor program used on Motorolas development system.

As for hardware, it depends. If you build a small system, the 8x24bit
RAM from Motorola helps to make a very compact design. For me this
memory size wasn't sufficient, so I used 3 32kx8 chips.

Hope this helps,
