Members Anderton Posted January 25, 2012 Members Share Posted January 25, 2012 So far only one Asus board and one or 2 prebuilts are projected to have TB by midyear. As a PC user I'm going to have to factor in the price of a new PC besides the $500.00 TB option. If I manage to scrape up the 2 grand for the duo I'm going to have to know how this thing performs overall(audio/plugs) through FW800 because that's how I'll be using it for a while realistically. FWIW, when UA mentioned doing a Pro Review, they didn't seem at all concerned that I don't have Thunderbolt, and won't for the foreseeable future. Existing UA systems run just fine with FW800, so I'm assuming that Apollo doesn't really NEED Thunderbolt bandwidth - but the handwriting is on the wall for FireWire and as Thunderbolt works its way into more and more laptops, I'm sure UA didn't want to be left behind.
