Hi Bill,
For editing video there is Kino (http://www.kinodv.org/) and Cinelerra
(http://cvs.cinelerra.org/about.php). For still image work (ie
Photoshoppy stuff) there is GIMP (http://www.gimp.org) and a variant of
GIMP called Cinepaint that is specifically geared towards moving image
work (http://www.cinepaint.org/).
It should be noted that while these are excellent apps, their workflow
is different from Premier and Photoshop. GIMPshop tries to redress that
by putting Photoshop-style menus and toolbars onto The GIMP to try and
help Photoshop users move across. I don't think there's anything
similar for Premier.
I'd definitely try these apps (GIMP and Kino / Cinelerra) on a Live CD
if possible to make sure you feel you can use them in place of the Adobe
apps. If you can, great, get rid of that Windows box :) If you can't,
look into dual-booting - Ubuntu makes this process pretty painless now,
even for Win2K / XP Pro users with NTFS partitions.
