Elementary OS [1] attempts to do that with a design first philosophy. However, it was still too much of a hassle to get it working with 3 monitors last time I tried it. I've used various linux distros for years, and there's always something that doesn't work right. Whether it's the speakers not turning off when I plug my headphones in through my thinkpad dock in Arch, or monitor position settings changing every time I reboot my desktop in Elementary OS, the lack of polish really shows. I understand why this happens, and I don't fault the people making on the various distros. I've even dove in and fixed a few problems myself. But nevertheless, it remains a problem, so for now I've just decided on windows for day to day use with a VM running linux when I need it. [1] http://elementary.io/ http://elementary.io/
