I hope this doesn't sound too dumb here:

I have a small Event videography business that uses almost exclusively
windows XP pro and adobe or canopus tools.

I am a longtime linux user (from before starting this business) and
have had a few go arounds with bacula.  I was able to get it running
at that time (about 1.5 yrs ago maybe) but ended up realizing I could
do all I needed with rsync and rsnaphot.  My needs were not demanding
and not critical.

I now have need of systematic backup of what can often be really huge
video media files.  Often to the tune of 20+gb per file.  And of
course numerous smaller files.

1 project while underway can have 80gb or more space tied up.  Not
counting the OS in use or the applications involved.  And these are my
beginner projects.  There may be several laying around on 4 250 GB
drives spread across two machines. 

So cutting to the chase:
Is bacula a viable candidate for this job?  When I last used it, the
windows part was not well developed.

I've looked at some of the commercial choices but would prefer an open
source solution.
