Good, I think it's a good idea!
Thank you!

Yes, I need a box that can do some cracking and also be used for other things.
Thanks for your advice!

Anyone out there actually used the thunderbolt Ethernet adapter with wireshark or tcpdump?
Can you please tell me if it can works in Promiscuous Mode?

Hi there,

I am looking forward to buy the new MacBook pro retina 15" with this configuration:

I7 2.6GHZ
16GB Ram
SSD 256
Thunderbolt Gigabit Ethernet adapter

My question are:

1)Is MB Pro retina 15 good for password cracking?

2)Does the apple thunderbolt ethernet dongle support promiscuous mode?

Anyone out there actually used/tested the thunderbolt Ethernet adapter with wireshark?

Thanks in advance
