That may be an impossible question to answer, given the information above. I'm going to suggest buying the most CPU power and RAM you can afford within your budget, and then picking a Linux distro to install on it. Ubuntu Server should be a good choice.
An alternate solution, considering that your budget supports it and you're already a Mac user, is to go with the Mac Pro, which has eight cores by default, and starts at $2,799.00. If you click the refurb link on the Apple Store page, and you don't want to customize the machine, you can save another $400 off of that.
