Have a macbook pro with Intel HD 4000 graphics card.
Right now, I connect two external Dell monitors, with each monitor going to a separate thunderbolt port.
It is a pain to connect both of these of these every day, and I can get their order mixed up sometimes. Is there any solution that would allow me to just plug in one thing to connect my external monitors?
I saw the DualHead2Go Digital ME does this, but at a steep price, what are some other options?

My 2011 MacBook Pro has only a single DisplayPort connector which drives a 24" external monitor, then I use a USB to DVI converter and connect two additional 24" external monitors for a total of three external monitors. The DisplayPort monitor is fast, while the two USB to DVI converter monitors are much slower but sufficient for email and web browsing tasks.
