Damn. I thought this might be about my Hutchins Thunderbolt bass - Gibson EB3 pickup configuration on a Telecaster body and neck. Oh well…
You have one on order I gather?
Yes, I am interested in the new connectivity standard for computers and how it will effect existing standards such as USB, 1394, PCIe etc
Interesting times ahead.
Aloha,
Some additional thoughts on this topic from other
posters on this board.

From what I understand, it is a dual mode Display Port and PCIe format and works by daisy chaining compatible devices.
Display Port and PCIe compatible devices can be put anywhere in a device chain with up to 6 devices per link, however legacy Display Port devices must be terminated at the end of a device chain.
I doubt it could benefit the Steinberg system link because it uses the PCIe protocol to deliver data and not anything developed by the AES or EBU.
