You might want to trust Apple has some nice goodies in Lion ... it's features are coming out next month. Be a little patient.
Will you be able to overclock a Mac to 5 GHz?
how are you going to keep an iMac cool with that kind of power demand?
Will Thunderbolt lead to overheating?
I wonder if more problems with overheating in MBPs and Imacs will show up when TBolt devices start to appear.
Not because of TBolt per se (although some systems do put a heat sink on the TBolt controller), but because TBolt will give these laptop-based systems high performance expansion capability.
With the added I/O capability, people may run these systems hard and long - leading to higher operating temperatures for long periods. High temperatures aren't good for electronics....
