Certainly not for a few years yet. Once the mega-multi-core processors come on to the scene, CPU power vastly outdistances the technology speed limits for inter-chip communication, and there is overly adequate number-crunching power for everything to be done in one chip, cost effectiveness / market pressures will drive a consolodation of functions... But until those conditions are met, I believe any attempts at such a thing would be a novelty, and not too popular either. It all depends on how fast the technology develops, and how quickly operating systems are updated to enable such fundamental hardware architecture changes...

How many computers (desktops, laptops...) do you currently have, and what operating systems do you have installed on them?
(Me: 3. A Vista laptop, an XP desktop, and a really old desktop which I will be changing from XP to Linux sometime reasonably soon... just for fun ).
