Hope you get one sam Id be interested in knowing how target mode works through thunderbolt and if it does where is an adaptor to allow firewire connection to an older model mac. there doesnt seem to be much info out there yet
from http://www.pcworld.com/businesscenter/article/220639/what_you_need_to_know_about_thunderbolt.html first entry on google this morning Can you boot a Mac from a Thunderbolt drive? We suspect so, but we haven't yet confirmed this capability. We'll update this answer when we know more. We're also looking into whether you can boot your Mac from a USB or FireWire drive connected to a Thunderbolt port using an adapter. Does Thunderbolt support Target Disk Mode and Migration Assistant? On the new MacBook Pro models, you can use Target Disk Mode over a computer-to-computer Thunderbolt connection. (We assume this will be the case with future Thunderbolt-equipped Macs, as well.) However, Mac OS X's Migration Assistant software doesn't currently support Thunderbolt connections. yes sir that will be £25 for the adaptor.........again......hurry up china have you made any yet?
