As Grant Bennet-Alder suggests, you'll need a dual-display dock. Avoid the $50-100 docks on Amazon that claim to be dual- or triple-displays, when you read the fine print you'll see that they really only support one display (you can connect 2-3, but they all show the same thing).


Dual display docks that work well with Macs include Brydge (Stone Pro), Elgato, OWC, Belkin and Kensington. Personally, I have used an Elgato dock, and just yesterday I ordered a Brydge Stone Pro – I like the aesthetics, Brydge makes great stuff, and through Nov 8 the dock is $50 off, making it the only sub-$200 option for now.
