Is there an additional constraint to "not unplug things from your personal machine"? If not, and you can get two machines with Thunderbolt, a TB dock solves this. I have my monitors, keyboard, mouse, ethernet, etc all plugged into a TB docking station. Then a single TB cable I swap between my work machine (Macbook Pro) and personal machine (Razer Blade).
