The biggest advantage is that you are not getting ripped off by all and sundry
for the softwqare that you use, because it is FREE. To me it has a much
pleasanter feel than Windows. Yes, you have to find and install the FREE
software to do the different things that you want to do on your computer, but
once this is done, life is much sweeter.

There is a whole host of knowledge out there both individually and from groups
to help you.
