[QUOTE="SWLinPHX, post: 1837481, member: 398893"] Yes, just realize they can be used interchangeably for the most part. "miniDisplay Port" refers to the type of connection (shape, size, fit). "Thunderbolt" is a proprietary Apple term that means a "souped up" miniDisplay Port that not only carries audio & video digitally but allows for hi-speed data transfer. They started switching to Thunderbolt (with the lightning icon) on 2010 and later computers. [/QUOTE]
