Re: Pretty amazing Thunderbolt demo.

[Jeremy Garchow] "As far as power, not sure what you mean. Why will it need more than what you can get from the outlet on the wall?"

The box can only acomodate cards that draw a max of 150 Watts (the smaller enclosure only 80, same for the MSI). Most GPUs draw more than that. A Quadro 4000, according to spec, draws 142, that's too close for compfort if it spikes. A current Radeon HD 7970 peaks at over 270 w.

[Jeremy Garchow] "Macs don't have USB ports? I'm not following you here. Are there other computers that have built in sata? Clients always send me USB drives too as they are the cheapest/most ubiquitous."

What I am saying is that I'd like to see a broad range of IO options based on real world usage. There is USB2, FW800 and TB in Apple's future. Why can't we have USB3, eSata, FW800, TB, hdmi and whatever is actually out there. Apple's concept of pushing a certain technology by eliminating or keeping out others has not worked in the past, why is it always the same story all over again where people end up on an island having to buy adapters that introduce more issues (eg display port) and cost.
