Interesting question.
Normally I would just suggest to go for a custom built desktop PC. You pick and choose exactly what you need in your rig, and pay for only the things you need. Plus, you get a lot more under the hood for $1000 on a desktop than you do on a laptop.
Since mobility is a big concern, you probably want to spend the extra dough and just get a beast laptop, although I don't know if a gaming laptop is your best bet. They have a lot of bells and whistles specific to gaming, and if you aren't gaming, it's a waste of money. There are some Lenovo laptops out there that can really pack a powerful processing punch.
