Add-on
Add-ons are optional computer hardware or software modules that supplement or enhance the original unit they are adding on to. Also known as pluginsextensions, snap-ins, or various other vendor-specific names, these modules often have proprietary interfaces that are tightly held by the manufacturer in order to prevent competing companies from producing add-ons. Manufacturers can use add-ons to create vendor lock-in by limiting upgrade options to only those available from or endorsed by the original manufacturer.  IBM's Micro Channel architecture, technically superior to Industry Standard Architecture as a way to add components to IBM PCs, largely failed to gain wide support due to the difficulty in getting certification for third-party devices.
