contemplating connecting my main LCD screen to the laptop while using
the laptop's screen as the secondary monitor.
This would work fine on any recent Mac laptop, giving you full color management (both distinct per-display calibration corrections, and per-display profile assignment) on both screens. With many Windows laptops, however, you would not get both distinct calibration and/or distinct profiling for both screens. It depends entirely on the videocard and drivers supplied. At worst, you could color correct one screen or the other, and let the secondard pallette screen be non-corrected.
