Building a multi-monitor setup

-

hey - i've been working on putting pretty intense setup replace random computers have around house work home (2010 imac, 2011 air, junk work pc laptop).

i'm working off of air refurb thundrbolt display bought last friday. plan on replacing air (and imac) 2015 13 inch rmbp , want make sure i'm not going run unexpected hiccups (i've seen few going through documentation).

1) thunderbolt displays mentions can't chain non-thunderbolt display off back…*major bummer. planning on buying older 27" cinema display (used, obviously) , using second external -- because can use mini display port switch , jump between second monitor mac display gaming pc. unless has better idea there, safe assume thunderbolt display , apple cinema display can run off of 2 thunderbolt ports on rmbps? don't see saying otherwise; never know…

(for wondering why don't use 2010 imac external - may use way while, need hit cmd + shift + 2 bounce…*and damaged display cable replacing hard drive year ago screen/audio flickers annoyingly every , then.)

1b) minor point - ever used thunderbolt cinema display? seem near identical, i'd hate random visual annoyance made them not same…

2) i'm going mounting 2 displays arms using vesa mounts - these arms i'm looking at, not sure if has they've liked more?

3) has used henge dock before? sexy hell , i'd incorporate 1 setup - looking see if has tried 1 , if liked it.

time folks! :)
 

1) can't daisy chain non-tb display directly off of thunderbolt display, if put thunderbolt device (with dual thunderbolt ports) between them, work. not cheap proposition, doable. on rmbp, dual thunderbolt ports, however, can connect monitors suppose, each monitor going it's own port on laptop.

2) make sure whatever mounts can handle weight of 27's. suck if heavy.
