For my desktop workstations, I've always been a fan of building my own in a generic black box. I've been using the same i5 debian desktop since 2013 and its been fantastic so far. I've never been able to justify the expense for an Apple desktop over a traditional off the shelf parts build. Laptops are a different story, I had an XPS 15 with ubuntu in 2014 but it was the least reliable and flimsiest 'pro' device I've ever used, I promptly returned it and got a 15" pro and I've been happy since.
