Hmmm. MAC or PC?
Here's the big question. How much do you want to spend?
Dell XPS 15
I7 3.2GHz (Boosted), 12GB of 1600MHz RAM, 1080p true-life display, 750GB HDD, Dedicated NVidia GeForce w/2GB memory, and tech support that comes to you. - $1500
or upgrade to 16GB RAM and a 512GB SSD - $2000
Plus you can increase the warranty up to 4 years and get accidental damage which will cover the system from just about anything.

As for Adobe, if you don't want to spend the full price they now are offering Creative Cloud for $50 a month for the annual plan. But they also offer different plans at different rates.

BTW, a gaming machine would not be the way to go. (Alienware) Those are tweaked and over-clocked for gaming performance.
