It says up to 10 Gbps. But I like the multi-function tunneling ability in this day of ever decreasing device sizes. Now a laptop or tablet only needs two ports: Thunderbolt and power, optionally headphone and SD card reader.

This is great for Apple, the leading champion of decreasing port clutter. It solves their problem of USB vs. Firewire, since they both can be replaced by this. This has already taken up the video out port, and I expect Firewire to disappear first, followed in a couple years by USB.

Not nearly technical. They didn’t have PCs when I started working. But I do own INTC.

Is this going to help INTC? Just curious.
