Hello all. I am considering buying a macbook pro and one of my considerations is the potential to run 2 extra monitors, so 3 all-in-all (the laptop screen + 2 more monitors). Can this be done so that I can do something different on each monitor (i.e. I don't want them to display the same stuff, I want them to act as an extension so I have more space to work with). Any help appreciated.

This was just answered recently. A search would have found that this is not possible, unless an Expresscard solution becomes available.
