It doesn't totally break it, my 3rd still works with a displaylink adapter but it only works in clone mode for my main monitor (it's freaking annoying, and turned off right now).

I called Apple support on this yesterday for my clients and myself and it should be taken care of soon (who knows if that is correct or not but that is what AppleCare is saying right now).

There are USB ports, HDMI out and VGA out ports. USB to Video adapter should work.

But the second monitor won't be seamless and identical to the first. Defeating the point.

Buy two and use Synergy.

Apple plans to revamp the Mac Pro, last released in 2013. It looks like it will be coming in 2019. So no details yet, but we know it is coming.

That would ruin a Sunday at church all right. I'm waiting to hear about a fix being put on place before running this update.
