I'm not aware of anyone ever trying. None of the clients we have are suitable to run on an Apple TV box directly.

If you could load some other operating system on one then perhaps it might be possible - but I'm not aware that it's been done already.

You can run some Linux distros on the AppleTV. It is however rather cumbersome, and when you start factoring in these costs of programming (and possibly compiling), it might be more cost effective to just go with a small form factor pc.

Can you help with this problem?

Provide an answer of your own, or ask J Rohland for more information if necessary.
