That's hardly unique to this situation though. It doesn't support Firewire or eSATA or VGA or ethernet or AppleTalk or Centronics parallel either. Life moves on, and this is hardly a company gripped by concerns for backwards compatibility.

You seem to have confused "Is this the end of Thunderbolt as well?" with "I hate Apple forever for changing things." It's a simple question with a simple answer. (Yes.)

Life moves on, but Thunderbolt is such a new interface to be obsoleted.
