But why go to linux when alternatives are available?
FreeBSD is a great option for a modern stable OS that can run pretty much everything linux can. Desktop system is also easy to install via DarkMate[0] on vanilla FreeBSD or then go to e.g. GhostBSD[1] that has all the bells and whistles from GUI installation onwards.

But it doesn't have the same driver or virtualization support Linux has. I haven't tried any of the BSDs on a laptop for about 4 years but power management was abysmal then.
