It sure sounds like a nice dream :) From the technical standpoint it  
could be easily done, but the question is if there is a market for  
such a thing. Well, if there is a market for CPU upgrades then there  
sure is one for the replacement cube motherboard for Intel  
processors. You never know, maybe someone will come up with a crazy  
thing like that.
