I'm thinking on buying 2 of these monitors for my graphic design use in and out of school. I'm also going to buy a mac book pro with retina display 13''. Can the mac book pro support 2 of these monitors?

 

Can it support 3, if I plan on 3 in the future?

 

And what cables do I require?

WHY CAPS!?!

Also 3 of these monitors is a waste of money, although they're really nice if you wanted to do some serious graphic design I'd recommend 1 or 2 4k IPS displays. These monitors are great but if you'd doing serious graphic design the curve will actually distort your image.

I would recommend 4K displays. I currently have 3 Acer B286HK's and they are absolutely amazing. Just to keep in mind though, I'm guessing you want to use Photoshop, well in 4K display, the scaling of it is terrible, but hopefully over time it will fix itself, because 4K is rather new.
