She knows Windows. I have thought of asking again but Linux isn't exactly known for user friendliness, no matter the distro and WM.
I agree with using FOSS when feasible.
Even Linux Mint?
I have not tried Linux Mint though I have been thinking about it for a long time. My best bet is to make the experience so close that she doesn't have to do anything different. She's a bit burned out on all my tinkering.
I have Linux Mint installed with the Windows theme and Windows style cursor. It looks almost identical to Windows.
