There's not enough product on the market that is compatible with TB to be worth it for Apple. And if Apple does so, that opens up the market for the PC. I could very well see a huge shift in the professional world that are tied to mac's going from Mac's to pc because they would not want to spend even more on upgrading or would have to many problem integrating a TB extension case. In Any case, AVid still has the upper hand, cause even if Apple went with dropping the PCI-e care, the magma case and others would serve a big purpose. So it's really not a problem for us hd or hdx users.
