looking for nice OS X like hardware solution

I've been using OS X as my desktop and doing all my dev work on a linux
box that I network too and now I'm shopping for a hardware solution
that would equal an apple solution w/ a 30 display because I know the
linux kernels really outperform os x and I'd like to not spend as much
money (especially on all the 3rd party licenses I end up getting
afterwards). But the desktop and monitor is really important for me.

Anyone make recommendations on some really nice displays and graphics
cards that linux (I run gentoo) would take advantage of.
