Hello. Im looking for a way to spoof my mac. By this i mean have it appear as a different piece of hardware across my network etc.

Basically what i'm trying to do is make my Hackintosh appear to my Macs as a "Mac Pro" rather than a "Mac Mini". Because of my hardware i need the Mac Mini profile/definition for the best results, but my Hackintosh is in a G5 case and physically looks like a Mac Pro. As such i'd like it to appear as one digitally too.

Reasoning aside, is this possible?

Thanks,
Chris.
 
Huh? The notion that your computer profile affects the quality produced by network devices is in your imagination. Nothing on your network outside your computer case gives a flying leap which model Mac you have.
