It is a very average Linux distro: easy to install, but buggy plus that there is no free software for it.
If you want to jump to Linux with minimal effort and without issues then you should look after Xandros Desktop 2 (also commercial).
Of course any Linux devotee will scorn both those two as crap and opt for something like Gentoo (very hard to bring up even for experienced users- everything at the installation phase is done via console and all programs are installed from optimized sourcecode...), but probably middle of the road solutions like Mandrake, Fedora or Debian should be a better compromise.
