New MacBook Pro pictures leaked – Thunderbolt!
Leaked pictures are now online of the new MacBook Pro 13″ range. The most intriguing thing is the new addition of the ‘Thunderbolt’ port. This new technology is actually Intel’s new Light Peak. (In the picture you can see the Thunderbolt icon next to the new style port)
A new report claims that Apple will unveil a refresh to its MacBook Pro lineup ‘shortly after’ an Intel press event to formally launch the chipmaker’s new Light Peak technology, which will reportedly be marketed as Thunderbolt, at 10am PST on Thursday.
Why do you care? It’s worth noting that right now, you don’t. If you go out today and try to buy a Light Peak peripheral, you’re going to be sorely disappointed. They simply don’t exist on the consumer market just yet. You will care, though, when they are…
Light Peak, or Thunderbolt, will be screamingly fast. As an example it could mean that you could transfer a 4 GB file (the size of a 1080p HD movie) in roughly four seconds. It is incredibly, mind-blowingly fast even by today’s standards.
