It Could be done... but not without special tools. And there is another problem. You'll need another serial EPROM with updated information about RAM size... That could be more of a problem than actually soldering new chips on board.
Maybe you could get 512MB RAM module for laptops (with 4 memory chips) and desolder RAM chips off and also the serial EPROM and then solder everything in the Apple TV.
Sounds like tons of fun :>

I had an idea the moment Steve said it has Intel CPU and hard drive... will it be possible to install OS X on the apple TV? It would be ideal little office/internet box... no noise, no power brick... just perfect.
Those are the specs... I found those on macrumors.com forum
A bit short on the RAM tho...

The processor appears to be a 1.0 GHz Dothan with 2 MB L2 cache <- enough for office
Main Memory 256 MB 400 MHz DDR2 <- i'd like 512MB
Fixed to the logic board <- sux
Graphics nVidia G72M, 64 MB DDR2 <- GF7300
Bus speed 350 MHz
Hard Drive 40 GB, PATA, 2.5-inch <- enough for office
Ethernet 10/100
Wireless M35B mini PCIe 802.11n (no Bluetooth)
Antennas 2 x 3 (2 Transmit/3 Receive)
USB One USB 2.0 host port (for use when servicing unit) <- you would need an USB hub
Firewire None
Video Out HDMI, Component RCA <- HDMI - DVI adapter would solve that
Audio I/O HDMI, digital optical, Analog R/L RCA, no microphone, no speaker, Dolby Digital ready (5.1) with HDMI or digital optical

In Topic: Best motherboard for 10.4.8

Symbion I think that Asrock ConRoe945G-DVI is a safe bet for a cheap motherboard. But if you are thinking about geting a celeron D just make sure that you will buy 352, 356 or 360. Those are new celerons with 512kB L2 cache made in 65nm technology. Those are much faster than old 90nm Celerons (similar speed to "original" P4 clock for clock) and they overclock like hell... Easily 4.5GHz with stock cooler, or 5GHz with good afermarket air cooler...
