The newest MBAs can power 2 external screens, as can the higher-end iMac (which isn't so bad since you can use the iMac itself as a 3rd). My "normal" 15 MBP can power one external (non-TB) screen, and I think the Retinas can power two TB + one HDMI. A lot of this assumes I'm buying Apple's expensive Thunderbolt displays, however.

- Udo 14y agoAh, OK, thanks. Since this thread has re-opened a wound, I've been browsing external Thunderbolt PCIe cases. Putting graphics cards in these is probably also on option, as long as I'm not doing anything seriously taxing with them. But holy fuck, they're expensive as hell, too.
