Changing out the motherboard/CPU/ram should be pretty easy though

All I was getting at is that at some point the buses are going to be too small for the processor/memory/etc and its going to require additional pins. typically this happens when there are new processors being released that use a new socket type offering new features. Pretty much anytime you upgrade your cpu you are going to need to build a new computer. That's been my experience at least.

PC Gamer gives a little more detail on Razer's modular computer
Razer CEO hopes Project Christine will make upgrades easy for casual gamers | PC Gamer

Most notable take aways:
They say the modules are not proprietary but you have to buy them from Razer. uhh what? sounds like Apple to me.

Hardware is sold on a subscription basis. Everyone wants you to pay a monthly fee for everything now a days. I get why they like it but I can't stand that ish.
