MacBook Air, Mac Mini Come on with Thunderbolt

Everyday when i come off duty, i can't help watching the latest Apple news. Actually i am an Apple fan really. I collect all the news about Apple products from newspapers、website、magzines. Is it crazy? Today it is about Thunderbolt. What's Thunderbolt? It is said to be the fastest, most versatile I/O ever.

Thunderbolt is a revolutionary I/O technology that supports high-resolution displays and high-performance data devices through a single, compact port. It sets new standards for speed, flexibility, and simplicity. And it’s on MacBook Air, MacBook Pro, iMac, and Mac mini.

At the same time Apple released its long-awaited Mac OS X 10.7 Lion (in a first, via online-only distribution), the tech giant also updated two of its Macintosh computers to include the Thunderbolt external bus technology that provides transfer rates of up to 10Gbps and supports storage, network, and video connections. The MacBook Air slim laptop and the Mac Mini small-footprint desktop both now come with Thunderbolt. The MacBook Pro and iMac were released with Thunderblt ports earlier this year. Only the Mac Pro ships without Thunderbolt.

MacBook Air, MacBook Pro, iMac, and Mac mini now give you access to a world of high-speed peripherals and high-resolution displays with one compact port. That’s because Thunderbolt is based on two fundamental technologies: PCI Express and DisplayPort.

PCI Express is the technology that links all the high-performance components in a Mac. And it’s built into Thunderbolt. Which means you can connect external devices like RAID arrays and video capture solutions directly to your Mac — and get PCI Express performance. That’s a first for any computer. Thunderbolt also provides 10 watts of power to peripherals, so you can tackle workstation-class projects. With PCI Express technology, you can use existing USB and FireWire peripherals — even connect to Gigabit Ethernet and Fibre Channel networks — using simple adapters.

All that power and blazing-fast data transfer flows through the Apple Thunderbolt Cable, one of the most advanced cables ever made. No single cable has been able to do so many things and do them with such astonishing speed. It doesn’t just connect high-performance devices. It is one in its own right.

And because Thunderbolt is based on DisplayPort technology, the video standard for high-resolution displays, any Mini DisplayPort display plugs right into the Thunderbolt port. To connect a DisplayPort, DVI, HDMI, or VGA display, just use an existing adapter.
The Air also comes with a backlit keyboard, a feature dropped in the MacBook Air release of last fall. Both the MacBook Air and Mac Mini also sport Intel Core i5 and i7 processors, depending on the configuration, providing what Apple says are significant speed increases of about 200 percent. The graphics processors have also been updated with faster versions.

With Thunderbolt, you’re just as likely to build a professional video setup around your MacBook Pro or iMac as your Mac Pro. If you’re a video editor, imagine using a single port to connect high-performance storage, a high-resolution display, and high-bit-rate video capture devices to handle all the post-production for a feature film. Thunderbolt I/O technology allows you to daisy-chain up to six Thunderbolt peripherals, including an Apple Thunderbolt Display and the Promise Pegasus RAID or LaCie Little Big Disk.1 You can even add an Apple LED Cinema Display to the end of the chain.

And that’s just the beginning. With Thunderbolt technology, peripheral manufacturers finally have what they need to take high-performance devices from workstations and top-of-the-line desktops to just about any computer.

The basic Air model is priced at $999, and displaces the now-discontinued white MacBook (which had the same baseline price) as Apple's entry-level laptop.

The baseline Mac Mini costs $599, but has no input devices or monitor. The Mac Mini continues to be available in a $999 model optimized for Mac OS X Lion Server; that model has two 500GB hard disks rather than the single 500GB disk in other configurations, and an i7 processor rather than the i5 processor in other Mac Mini models.

Apple also released an updated version of its $999 Cinema Display with Thunderbolt ports.
