I currently have two computer systems that I can use for photo processing.  My 
“at home” system is an early 2009 mac pro and my laptop is a mid 2014 macbook 
pro.

The mac pro has a couple of advantages, the big one is that I can stuff an 
incredible amount of storage into it.  It also is currently set up with 24G of 
ram, where the mbp only has 16, they both have SSD root drives.

The mbp seems to be quite a bit faster at things like processing previews, it 
might also have an advantage in a GPU that lightroom can utilize.

I’m very tempted to try to set up the MBP as my main processing computer and 
the pro as basically NAS. The challenge to this is that I like to use two 
monitors, one horizontal, one vertical, and if I plug them both into the MBP 
then I lose my ethernet adapter.

Is there a reasonably cost efficient way to do this?  Or should I just keep 
muddling along on the tower?
