Well I mean that's not really a real question, is it? You've specifically phrased it so that only a macbook would be acceptable. But if you're at all serious, the Xiomi probook is pretty good. It doesn't have a retina display but non-retina displays work better with linux so I actually prefer that for a linux laptop. It also has an nvidia-optimus gpu setup, which is a big improvement. Everything works out of the box on linux. Of course if you're married to mac OS you're married to mac OS.
