  1. Below are a few articles on the approach that it seems people are beginning to play with to use thunderbolt to transfer data between computers. They are instantiating the ports as Ethernet devices, so that as far as the computers that are connected are concerned the thunderbolt connection behaves as a regular (Although very fast) network connection. Some of the sample speeds seem to leave something to be desired, however since this is just recently supported (THUNDERBOLT_NET) in the Linux, I am guessing there is still some room for improvement. The first article seems to imply 40G Ethernet speeds between a Mac and a Windows machine, however having not attempted this, I can not speak to actual results.
