Umm, yea, 60 points is just a tad high... But hey, if it works for you, go for it 
In all of my campaigns we use 32 point buy. I've come to really dislike rolling because I've just seen too many trusted friends roll "unwitnessed" uber characters. It seems even the most honest person is prone to freaky streaks of luck when rolling up characters by themselves. I'd just rather have everyone be even.
On the other hand, in one campaign we had the choice of the following:
1) Roll stats (only witnessed rolls count. Yes, I trust you completely, but only witnessed rolls count.)
2) Do a point buy from the Character Gen program
3) Use the point array from the Character Gen program
So you'd geneate 3 sets of stats (one with each method) and pick the one you wanted to keep. It gave you a chance to roll something well, but put a "floor" on it so that no-one was too "ability-challenged".
