Btw, don't quote me on this one :) I'm only 90% sure of the hotswapping capabilities, and
less than 50%
sure about the price :)
There _are_ systems with hot-swap CPUs, memory and/or,
PCI[-X] slots.
They are _not_ commodity and pricey, and require OS-level support.
In fact, I believe Linux 2.6 has some support for hot-swap
-- at least
at the PCI[-X] level, if not memory and possibly CPU as well. It requires extensive support though for that type of
"dynamic" flexibility.
Memory hotswap ? Sounds fishy to me, at least on IA32{,e} platforms. Are you sure about that ?
