basic thing...

the possibility

Nope, I'm not up with current systems.

But we had a system like that at work in the late 80's using the
original Macintosh computers connected to a 20meg hard disk with
a builtin server.

 ML> not so odd... the formfactor was known as "baby AT"...
i've a 386/40
 ML> motherboard here that's about the size of a book...

Yes, there was a terrific reduction in size when the boards went
to using the SIM memory. I think that was after the first 386s
were released.

IIRC all the 286's and earlier used DIP chips on the m/board or
on enormous cards in the expansion sockets.
