Hey guys, I'm thinking about buying a 27" thunder bolt display to use with my MBA AND MBPr, the question is can I use the Thunderbolt Display with a pc that has a mini display port ? Is thunderbolt the same as mini display port ? Thanks ...
 
I don't think you can, the thunderbolt output on your macs can provide display port output for a non apple monitor but I don't think you can use a display port on a PC to drive a thunderbolt display. Thunderbolt is not an apple exclusive so you could maybe find a windows PC with a thunderbolt port.
