Has anyone got a ATI 5870 eyefinity working with Apple 24" LED display?

I'm trying to find the right graphics card to power 2x 24" LED. Anyone got a setup working they can share some knowledge about?

 

I'm thinking the ATI 5870 eyefinity with 6 mini display ports would be ideal. But not found anywhere that says it will drive the Apple displays.

Go with the Eyefinity.

 

I have a 1gb edition 5870, and I had to buy two DVI-miniDP active converters. They cost me $50 each, and that's after I got a great deal on ebay -- new ones cost $100. Apparently the DP port on the 1GB 5870 has problems with the apple display.

 

There's a post here in insanelymac that has a bootloader that enables all 6 outputs of the eyefinity card, so you should be able to get both monitors working without any converters.
