Do micro controllers come in sizes like surface mount components?

Yes, they started to join surface mount about 6 months ago Just grab your neighborly micro controller datasheet and view the Package types.

I would have to say that you have not genuine interest in electronics yourself.
 
Not only microcontroller, most of the IC comes in smt package. Who wants to buy a 100 pins DIL package?
 
Oh yes, why not individual electrons??? (quantum electronics)
