I have a MBP 13inch. I want to get an external monitor, perhaps 2 if I can find them at the right price. Most likely they won't be apple external monitors as much as i'd like them to be.

I've heard I can use my OS X using these external monitors even with the macbook pro itself closed. Are there any tools, add-ons or set ups I gotta get to accomplish this?

I always have only used my mbp on its own, out n' about but when i get home i'd love to use the apple wireless mouse and keyboard and would love to be able to have extra room and move my mouse around at least 2-3 screens.
