I'm told IBM did this back in the 1960s or 70s. Friend told a story where, in order to "install" the "CPU upgrade" they had purchased, an IBM System Engineer came out and *cut a wire* in the CPU cabinet. These days, it's standard operating procedure in the world of phone systems to buy "more ports", which really just means entering a key code to enable the facilities which are already there.
