WampServer

I have a Xeon based server at home for years running windows server 2008. I've been running a iis webserver there, first with classic asp and asp.net /sql server based pages. Later I h ave added php and wordpress to the server. Now 2008 is removed from Microsofts updates list, and I'm tired of problems adding new web project to the server. At work I just runs a windows pc with wampserver, and it just works. So heres what I want to do:

Format the whole damn ting, install a Linux operating system(server?) Use Wampserver for web development, and something else for ftp?

I have from time to time tried to play with Linux Mint, and Ubuntu, but really, I have little experience with these systems, that's the truth. That's why I ask if there are someone with knowledge to can advise me about what is the best setup? I need it to be in a graphic user interface as i easily get lost in commands.

The first problem I see is

WAMPServer only runs on WINDOWS
