From now on I'm going to store them on a dedicated bitcoin wallet machine with linux on it

It's a good first step, but it's still putting all your eggs in the same basket. You need to diversify. Even if you want to keep bitcoins as an investment or to promote the system, you need to invest at least one out of each two bitcoins mined into a different portfolio. Be it gold, real estate, remunerated savings account, stocks, venture capitalism, more mining rigs, take your pick. And don't forget to give 10% to charities!

Or you could just put a majority of your coins onto couple of cheap thumbdrives, encrypt them, and put one in a safety deposit box and another in a bubble wrap envelope with your last will and testament.
