<p>I am getting ready to completely overhaul my web server. I use it for both development and to present product to clients. It also hosts my company website.  I will be loading MS Server 2008 and MS SQL 2008. I want it to have the latest .NET Framework as well as the latest MVC templates. I want it to use SubSonic. I also want to start using some sort of SourceSafe (or whatever a good one is).I plan to use VS 2008 as my development tool.</p>

<p>I figure there are a lot of people out there who have recently gone through this and will have good suggestions.</p>

<p>It is a good stout machine with lots of memory and storage, so, please let me know anything that will help me become a better developer.</p>

Well, sounds like you've already got a good list going. Though I'd recommend against SourceSafe.

. SubVersion is a free alternative. Or perhaps git or something like that if you're up for a challenge.
[edit to add]
If you can afford it, TFS is a nice product that gives you bug tracking, version control, and a build environment. All of those will help you be a better developer.
