Question normal oil pressure?

Sorry, I'm sure this asked a lot, but I tried the faq and search and came up with nothing.

What should the oil pressure gauge read normally?
Cruising at ~80mph in 5th gear (~3300 rpm), my oil pressure gauge reads a little above 60. It's almost always right at or just below the 60 mark. I'm just wondering if this is too high or if it's normal.

60 is good. Just above is fine... I'd be more worried about low oil pressure.
