[Jeremy Garchow] "So I guess we can all agree that an external Thunderbolt future is looking doable, it's just the highest of the throughput is just out of reach?"
I am trying to make two assertions in my conversation with Craig:
- Darren was onto something when he compared Thunderbolt and Firewire, as Thunderbolt has more in common with Firewire than not.
- Thunderbolt is fast and cheap, but it is not high-end expansion.
I agree with Craig 100% that Thunderbolt is a huge step forward and that it will change the way we work. CPUs are now "fast enough" for video editorial, so raw computation matters less than connectivity for NLE users today.
