can you take a ATmega328 and put it in the arduino then program it then pull it out and hook it up to power resonator and correct pins and it will run? If so... do the new arduino's come with a ATmega328 soldered directly to the board or in a dip socket?

ATmega328 without board??

Also why does the arduino use a 16mhz crystal and not the chips max of 20 mhz
