This will be an in-depth look at the Dell WorkStation XPS 690 which is a prime candidate for the Mac OS X Leopard. On a deeper look at the specifications of the Mac Pro and comparing it with the Dell XPS 690 they’re very similar. Here is what it looks like:

The current MacPro 3,1 runs on the Intel’s 5000 series modified motherboards supporting EFI specific to Apple with 2x 2.8GHz-3.2GHz xeon 54xx series cpus. Taking advantage of the FB-DIMMs at 2×667MHz or 1333MHz speed with Error Correction and Fully Buffered to handle the toughest tasks.

Another Day, Another average story. My Cousin who has this nice Dell Precision 690 Server PC. Which we (Me and Junaid) thought would be a perfect candidate for installing Leopard on. My cousin has to HAVE his PC work with 4 monitors. Which was powered by a ATI FireMV2400 which I knew wasn’t supported but, didn’t stop us fellow hackers. So we continued. We went down to our local Fry’s, and bought 4 GB’s of Fully Buffered Dimms (Server Memory) and a 500 GB hdd. We were on our way. We went to the Loft/Office and Installed all of it. Man 16 slots of Memory Heaven, after that booted from Leopard HDD and waited 5 Mins for it to finish booting, after that we need to format that drive, but wouldn’t show up in Disk Utility, so we are like what? We went into the Bios and checked it out, we soon found out the SAS Controller wasn’t supported in our Hack. So we switched both of them to the Sata Controller, It worked installed and booted, and guess what video worked! but wait not for the ATI but the nVidia which I forgot to mention. QE/Ci all that good stuff. It was nicely working, sound, 6 Gb/s of ram, but that stupid 4 monitor video FireMV.
