The MacBook Air’s Thunderbolt is slightly different, though. It’s how the latest MacBook Pros can run dual Thunderbolt displays that each feature a sort of docking station with three USB ports, one FireWire port, Gigabit Ethernet, and another Thunderbolt port. The capabilities are nearly endless as the single I/O port allows for nearly any interface normally associated with PCIe or DisplayPort. Thunderbolt is an amazing interconnect, capable of running four bidirectional, dual standards 10 Gbps channels. Hope you weren’t planning on hooking up two of those new fancy Thunderbolt Displays. The Air’s version packs less power and throughput resulting in less abilities. Anadtech discovered that the Thunderbolt chip within the latest MacBook Air is not the same found in the current MacBook Pro. Apparently not all Thunderbolt ports are created equally.
