I was going to say pretty much the same thing. I used to be a dyed in the wool fan of Lenovo running linux, but due to some need to work on iOs development I finally bit the bullet and switched to a Macbook Pro. I maxed the specs on it and I have had no problems at all. It fulfils all of the requirements the OP has, and honestly stays pretty cool. I honestly don't believe I will be moving away from the MBP any time soon.
