My understanding is that there are small plastic "clips" that hold the shell on, and they are hard to remove without special tools...

I'm guessing someone out there will sell a Mini Mac RAM upgrade "kit" for those willing to void their waranty.. Like the company that offers an iPod battery upgrade, complete with a custom tool to crack open the case.
