You may want to check out a fascinating book entitled "West of Eden"
by Harry Harrison. In it, the dinos did not die out but evolved into the
dominant culture; mankind evolved but remains stuck at a sort of
cave-dweller level because there's nowhere else for them to go. What's
most interesting is the technology the dino culture developed: Completely
biological, with all of their "machinery" manufactured through generations
of genetic engineering.
A lot of fun.
