  1. yes, and yes. The decision about which distro you're going to use will definitely impact your choice of software available. Linux will have trouble succeeding on the desktop in any real way until software is more self contained Hopefully the steam box helps that. I'd recommend ubuntu for that reason. It's the most common non-business linux desktop, so has the most software available. But check your desired software to see what they support.
  2. As long as the software you want to use is available, there's not a compelling reason to use one variety of computer operating system over another. Even the world's worst operating system is reasonably usable. The risks associated with each vary, as do the frustrations for using something lots of other people don't. The key thing is to not use a privileged account when you don't require it. As long as you follow that precaution, and are careful about what you approve escalating privileges for, you should be fine.
