Hmm. Am I the only one that thinks that the premise of "you don't need to upgrade the rest of the system - just the memory" is a bad one?
I find that typically if the memory requirements grow, so have the overall system requirements. Even if you could swap the CPUs as well, would you not want new power supplies, faster bus, etc...
Plus, it's called "commodity" hardware for a reason - it has a finite life-span.
