It looks like Intel’s Light Peak technology will officially be called Thunderbolt, as some more information has revealed that the Thunderbolt trademark actually belongs to Intel.

This new technology is expected to be a game-changer for professionals who require fast data transfer rates for tasks such as video editing, 3D rendering, and large file transfers. The ability to daisy-chain multiple devices through a single Thunderbolt port will also simplify connectivity and reduce cable clutter.

The new 2011 MacBook Pro’s are expected to come with a range of impressive specifications. Rumors suggest that the new models will feature Intel’s latest Sandy Bridge processors, which offer improved performance and energy efficiency compared to previous generations. The new MacBook Pro’s are also expected to come with upgraded graphics capabilities, possibly featuring AMD’s Radeon HD 6000M series GPUs.
In addition to the hardware upgrades, the new MacBook Pro’s are expected to come with improved battery life, thanks to the more efficient processors and graphics chips. The new models are also rumored to feature high-resolution displays, possibly even Retina displays, which would offer incredibly sharp and detailed visuals.
It will be interesting to see the specifications on the new 2011 MacBook Pro’s and also find out full details about Intel’s Thunderbolt technology. The combination of these new technologies is expected to make the 2011 MacBook Pro’s some of the most powerful and versatile laptops on the market.
