External Thunderbolt graphics card for Macs to be developed soon, thanks to Facebook poll

Have you ever let your Facebook friends determine a new product development decision for your company? Well, Village Instruments has, via an online poll in order to gauge interest in an external Thunderbolt PCI Express graphics card enclosure. Dubbed the ViDock Thunderbolt, this device will soon begin to dramatically improve the performance of today's Apple machines. Running at speeds of up to 10Gb/second, the new T-Bolt model can move data much faster than the company's current Express Card-connected external GPU. So if you're rocking the new MBP model, but you've got a hankering for more power out of your graphics card, you better start saving your Benjamins.
