I moved to Arch Linux a few years back. So did wifey but she doesn't care about what OS she uses. We both use KDE <thingie> for a Window Manager, Libre Office and Evolution (Exchange is involved). Printing is of course CUPS, which is lovely and simply works. Lots of other things installed from the one set of repos. KDE allows you to "lock" the desktop icons/widgets in place. That is a feature that is sorely missing from all other WMs (Mac/MS/ int al) and for me is a killer feature. Some of my end users have a habit of smearing icons (launchers) all over the place. Desktop Linux is way better than say Desktop Windows (by OP metric). Updates take a few minutes rather than hours in some cases. Fixing things does not involve sfc /scannow but then neither does that work on any Windows box unless it has spinning rust and loses power regularly without battery backed cache. I update my wife's laptop via SSH when she is using it and I throw a reboot job at it out of hours via cron. My wife is happy with what she needs to get to - Facebook, email, some odd Flash games on FB and a few other things. I'm sure that Mac and Windows sysadmins can all say the same (I'm those as well.)
