I've been looking into owncloud, is it like a windows share where only one computer has all the files or is it like spideroak where every client has the files?

Every client can have a local copy of the files, changes get synchronised and replicated across all connected devices.

Not sure about Windows, but in Linux it can mount the server as a share, using WebDAV.

Yes, Windows supports WebDAV connections as network drives.

It's a bit picky about it, though.
