I think Linux is a pretty involved route unless you go with a more common flavor like Ubuntu
Probably heavy google usage is necessary for this choice, here's a start:
Video Editing For Ubuntu ~ IT Professionals
Lifehacker - How to edit video on a Linux system - Linux
Photo Editing With the GIMP
I like the server 2008 idea too.
I run XP 64 at home and on my workstation at work and its been awesome. Two years ago I would not have said the same thing though.
Go with a WD cavair black series harddrive over the one you have listed, it will give you better performance:
Newegg.com - Western Digital Caviar Black WD7501AALS 750GB 7200 RPM 32MB Cache SATA 3.0Gb/s Hard Drive - Internal Hard Drives
Newegg.com - Western Digital Caviar Black WD1001FALS 1TB 7200 RPM 32MB Cache SATA 3.0Gb/s Hard Drive - Internal Hard Drives
