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.
