My guess is that the graphics card will have a DVI and two Mini-DP ports like current cards do, and that the thunderpoop ports will be on the logic board, routed to the back panel.
Yeah, I think an iMac with chunderbolt and the ability to put in 16GB of RAM and an SSD will cover the needs of even some of the more power-hungry Mac Pro users. It covers everything except PCI expandability, pretty much. I really think the Mac Pro's days are numbered now, but Apple has surprised me before. It'll eventually come down to the group of users who need the multiple-core performance for things like rendering, and things like Quadro cards. Seems like there is always going to be a market for that, even if it's very small. Hard to imagine Apple getting rid of it entirely.
