What most people including myself think is this, I can get alsower more expensive system and have to do nothing or for less money I can get a faster system. Companies like dell and compaq, all make upgrading a big hasel and overpriced to make the consumer feel like it is to difficult to do on their own. The whole point is with literally 5 minutes reading you can learn the basics of setting up a system and anyone can do this. They don't at the moment due to the fact that these people don't know how simple it is, if they were told then they would do it.
Also to the other post, I said it would be like having a dual cpu on one chip. Even if this was the case it would be very much faster asthe system resources wouldn't be shared and the transfering of information between the cpu's would be much faster and reduce latency(main problem for bottleneck in dual cpu setup). If the larger chips ever came out and couple of extra pipeline steps would sortout the problem and share out all the information throughout the chip.
