It has been discussed in depth before, and it was determined that it would take some serious case modding as well as a hacked BIOS for it to be possible. I don't doubt that somebody would be able to rig it into their system, but to get the BIOS to read it may be another story.

there hasnt been much effort because most are waiting to see if something better (7900) is just around the bend.

It had been decided that it appears possible to put the card in with minimal modification, but the whole BIOS hack is another story. I imagine the BIOS hack to be very hard to do now, and maybe easier whenever a dual core XPS comes along
