Dream PC Description

An adaptable PC with extra modules that plug in to the back of the computer to boost the RAM, processor
or graphics of the PC. It would run a linux-based highly-customisable OS that utilises .dlls and emulators to run any application built for any other OS. Featuring a fast Solid-State Drive, it would need high performance to keep respectable speeds while running applications through an emulator. The plugin modules would make sure that the pc could be easily upgraded when technology gets better, and the modules would be far less expensive than upgrading the whole pc.

You have 2 separate ideas here, and I have questions about them.

1 Modules to upgrade the pc:
The difficulty would be to (1) make universal modules that (2) withstand time. Do you have ideas for that? (nothing withstands time!) In practice, all you ever need to upgrade are your processor and RAM. Now you can just buy a better processor that fits in the same socket, and bigger/more RAM modules. So, how long is this computer supposed to last, even if you upgrade it to the max? I think if you aim for 10 years, technology would have caught up and it's RELATIVELY really not a fast computer.

2 Be able to emulate other OS'es (why/for who is this important?
