My computer at home was running Vista and it was getting too slow. My gf wanted a panel
, Cinnamon looked pretty nice, so why not try Mint? I must say I'm impressed so far. At work I'm very happy with Ubuntu, but for home use Mint might be better. It's very very friendly for people coming from windows.
Mint feels just as polished as Ubuntu although in a whole different way.
As much as I like Ubuntu and unity (yep, I really like unity
) I would never recommend it to any of my non-tech friends, I might recommend Mint though.
